Do you have power to the fuel pump fuse when the motor quits or when trying to start it , This fuse is by the fuel pump relay . It is on a 93 I don't know about a 89 . Where ever the fuel pump relay there should be a fuse . What ever shuts power to the fuse could be your problem , if you find it let me know , I have the same problem .
