So at this point what fuel pump are you using? Do you have a fuel pressure gauge to see it’s not running out of fuel?

Welcome to the forum. Your problem can only be fuel or electrical.Try running a jumper wire from any battery hot side to the top of the injection pump. The fuel shutoff solenoid might be loosing power somehow. The fuel shutoff solenoid is the large spade connection closest to the radiator. The connection towards the back is the cold advance solenoid. Its power comes from the sender found behind the thermostat housing and is normally closed sender power to the fast idle too but..When the coolant reaches around 120 degrees this sender opens and stops sender power to both the fast idle and the cold advance..
