2000 Daewoo Lanos 4 cyl Automatic

Daewoo 2000 Lanos. Car will start then moments later it will die. When it's started I can push down on the gas pedal and it will rev up, but if I push too far down on gas pedal it will immediately die. It will run fine with engine starter fluid. Makes me think something to do with fuel. I can hear the Fuel Pump turn on. I've changed the Fuel Filter under the hood, Idle Control Valve, and Throttle Positioning Sensor. I'm now thinking maybe it's the Fuel Pump, Fuel Injector(s), Computer, I need advice before I go out and spend more money. I bought a ODB II code reader. Originally I was getting the P0120 code, but then I replaced the Throttle Positioning. Now no codes, perhaps I cleared the code by accident or the issue was resolved. Any advice of what my problem may be would be appreciated, thank you.

Hook up a fuel pressure gauge and verify if the fuel pressure is within specs-
