Fuel not getting to injectors

Toyota Corolla 2001 Le 152000 miles
My 2001 Toyota recently died while I was driving home I was able to restart it and chug my way home. After that it would not start. Replace the fuel pump, check all plugs, fuse and spark plugs. Now it will start but runs only for a second or two and dies as if it's not getting enough gas. I can hear the fuel pump running when I start and when the car dies. Everything seems to be working no codes come up when plugging in. Not sure what to do now any suggestions?

You should change the gas line filter and also try Gas Line antifreeze it removes any water in the line.

Starting

Toyota Corolla 1992  75000 miles
After some hours of being stopped, I couldn't start driving my car. The engine started running but that was all, it could not be driven. I've checked and there is no spark in the spark plugs, and even the fuel pump seems to be not working. Apparently, there is no electrical current reaching the distributor. I personally believe it might be a computer's failure, can someone give me a hand please?

You should check that there is some noise for 3-4 seconds indicating that there is fuel pumped to the injectors. There might be some failure between the ECU and the relay. The best you can do is go to a good diagnostic center.

Which delay? The ECU relay? Where is it located?

Vibration on reverse gear

Toyota Corolla 2005 Sedan, auto, 1.8l 100000 miles
Engine vibrates on reverse gear, all engine mounts are normal and serviced there is no problem with the engine mounts, all spark plugs, coils and fuel injectors are cleaned but I still have the same problem. Is it possible that it can be a wiring or electric issue that my car shakes and vibrates when I put on reverse gear?

No Spark But Still Turning Over Just Not Firing up

Toyota Corolla 1993 AE93 Corolla CSI  200000 miles
Hey I have a AE93 corolla I've recently done a service to it that includes, (oil filter, fuel filter, spark plugs, dropping the oil flushing the old oil out and refilling it with new oil, Cleaning the throttle body with Carby clean) once I did all that I went for a night drive and as i was coming back home the car made a small thud noise then there was no response to the accelerator as I lost speed, I got it back home and went to diagnose the problem but no luck the car still is turning over just no spark I've pulled the rocket cover to see if it just stripped a gear but the distributor is strait connected to the cam shaft were unsure on what it could be were expecting it to be the coil in the distributor unless you guys know anything else it could be, cheers
