Hi
The ECM will give the fuel pump relay a run signal for a few seconds when cranking the engine, after that the ECM looks for the distributor reference pulses or will de energize the fuel pump relay.
Check the Schrader port on the fuel injector rail, check there is 30 to 35 psi fuel pressure. (The later C4 ran 38 to 42 psi with 19lb injectors, the 85 has 24lb injectors so lower fuel pressure).

You can remove the fuel pump relay cover, and close the contact with a cable tie for a test.
Good to know it can get you home if the ECM doesn't keep the relay energized.

Good Luck

Is the cam stock or what? What injectors? What did you do with the ECM exactly? Lastly, punctuation.

Wouldn't want to do that first one, after all

If you are OK with doing the second part of the meme, I suppose. Not judging.
