Default Car won't start NEED HELP!!!

Wsup guys?
I bought a 92 Prelude SI Automantic about a week ago and it ran fine love my new used car!!!!
Just last night i wanted to go to the store and it turned the key and it wouldnt start... So i turned the key to see if the fuel pump was kickin on and sure enough it wasnt. So i replaced it. I also replaced the spark plugs because the old ones were all corroded. So i tried to start it and it still didnt work. So i replaced the fuel filter because that coulda been the problem. But NO i was wrong. I try and start it now and all it does is crank... I sprayed carb cleaner in the intake manifold and it would start for a good 2-3 seconds and just die.
I can't figure out what it is so I though maybe one of you guys would kno...
Please help me out guys!!!!

Thanx!

Is the fuel pump priming now? If not, check fuses, then if none are blown replace your main relay.

make sure there is power going to the fuel injectors... I had the same problem. I replaced my fuel pump and it turned out that for some odd reason I had no power going to the injectors... check fuses and good luck
