Car starts idles for a second then dies

Hi this is the second z I have owned so I'm not extremely familiar with them My car is a 91 n/a with 160 k on it. I drove it Friday morning just fine with no problems then parked it and about 2 hours later went to drive it and it was starting for a min idling at about 500 then turning off and it was doing it in short times me and a buddy sprayed some starter fluid into the butterfly valve and it started for a little longer but then dies again we checked the fuel filter and it's not getting any gas to it right now but the fuel pump is turning on fine could it be a clog in the fuel line somewhere?
