If the CEL comes on consistently for 2 seconds and then goes out, when the ignition switch is turned to ON (Position II), replacing the Ignition Control Module (ICM) and coil usually solves the problem.

I would replace the Ignition Control Module, located inside the distributor. Be sure to apply silicone heat transfer grease to the back of the new ICM. Over 90% of all crank but won't start situations are electrical related, not fuel. If you can hear the fuel pump run, it is likely fine.
