I am resurrecting a '74 2.0 with D-Jetronic FI with my mechanic buddy, and we have hit a block wall. The injectors won't fire, but we have spark, air, and fuel. We have installed a newly rebuilt MPS, new air pressure sensor, new head temp sensor, new injector seals, have good ground, replaced most fuel lines, blown out the remaining fuel lines, cleaned and blown out the injectors, reset fuel pressure to 35 psi, tested the injectors with 12 volts direct to the injectors to see if they activate (which they do), but they don't activate when we attempt to start. The engine does crank. Is my next step to test/repair/rebuild the ECU? Is there anything we are missing that we can do before sending out the ECU? I'm not the mechanic, so I hope the above makes sense. I figured the vast experience of the guys here might get us across the finish line to getting this car started. Thanks in advance for any advice you might have for us. Happy driving!
