Sorry man, when I replaced my engine, I was curious about injectors. The dude said they were $200 PER injector (dealership)

Did you prime the injectors?

There is a connector to do this on the psgr fender well.

88-91 is a yellow two connector thingy that you have to short the two together.

I think that older versions just have 1 connector that you ground.

either way, if you turn the key in the run mode, then connect the prime connector to the right place, you should hear gas flowing.

after the whooshing and whining sounds are gone, you should be able to start (or flood start) the car.
