I am still chasing down my FI problems. Got a new realy board seems to have solved the fuel pump problem. when I switch the ignition on now I here the FP for a brief moment as I think it supposed to do. I have reconnected the vaccum hoses (dumb ass PO unhooked every hose (IMG:style_emoticons/default/fighting19.gif) ). I am sure the fuel is being delivered to the pressure reg and beyond, still need to measure pressure. Alas I am getting no fuel into the cylinders. Crank it for 15-30 seconds and pull a plug and it is dry. Tried 2 diff FI brains and nothing ( I am pretty sure that the new one should be operational). Sorry this is a long explanation. Tonight I want to check the trigger points. As I understand it they signal the control unit to dispense fuel RIGHT? I am wondering if they are stuck closed or bad or what. I don't know I am just chasing my tail. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)

Am I going about this all wrong?

Thanks Guys,

Todd

All good advice...

but he should check fuel pressure first.

checking the injectors is easy... do like Rich above me said: turn the key on and work the throttle... listen carefully for the injectors... they will click as you move the throttle (and squirt gas) I unplug all but one injector when I'm testing like that (so I dont foul plugs or cause a back fire when it does start)
