Now turn the ignition a bit and check the valve- if it sprays out again, the fuel rail has pressure and the injectors should be getting enough fuel to turn over the engine.
    is this the rail that runs on the side of the intake on top of the engine?

    Yes, just under the plastic cover and the valve is on the driver's side. If you get pressure here, it should eliminate the need to look at the fuel pump because you'll know the pump is getting fuel to the engine.
