I have the same problem with my 94 splash. Starter fluid will get it going but 70% of the time it will start and the other 30% it dies. It turns over and then just immediately dies.

Sounds like a fuel delivery problem; I'd check the fuel pressure regulator and change out the fuel filter (as you've said the pump is running when the key is turned to the 'ON' position).

Either that, or you've got a bad fuel pressure sending unit.
