Default 91 crx rev but will not stay running

So I recently did a head job on my 91 si and now when I try to start it, it won't run just rev and die... When I spray starting fluid into it, it will stay running I have no idea what the problem is

You could check compression or see if there is a restriction on your fuel return line for a start

Yeah it still would run off of that which means it might not be getting fuel back into itself
