Tom,
When removing the sparkplugs I can see/smell fuel on them so I'm sure that
at least some fuel is getting there. I can also hear the pump running when
I first turn the key on.
I assume that the pump could be working and still not be supplying the
engine with the correct fuel pressure? It seems to me that it would at
least stumble in an attempt to start if that were the case, but it doesn't.
Anyway, I don't think checking the fuel pressure is a bad idea though.
What is it that I need to buy? Where do I hook it up? What is the
procedure for checking? I'm not familiar with this at all.
Thanks!

I agree with the pervious post about checking fuel pressure. Hook up a
pressure gauge and test that. It seems thats the only other thing you have
not confirmed good.
Another possibility is that the injectors are not injecting fuel. I don't
know if you tested that or not - - I havnt been watching theis entire
thread. Its either a clogged fuel filter/dead pump... or injectors not
activating. IF the injectors are not working - thats an indication the
problem could be a faulty engine computer. Check fuel pressure first - if
there is fuel pressure than its the injectors. You seem to have covered
just about everything else ignition related.
