Injectors not firing! Gurus Help!
Well I got my TII installed yesterday. Sat back and finished all the easy stuff (plugging everything in) today. Now I have just one problem.
It won't start. Well it will if you use starting fluid. Fuel pressure is great. Spark is great. But it seems the injectors aren't doing anything. After you crank it you can pull a plug and see that it is dry. We have tried everything. Went through all the connections again, nothing.
Details:
The engine is a fresh rebuild.
It is in a 90 GXL.
I got the engine as an assembled longblock, so all the fun stuff was already in its place and connected when I picked it up.
Yes, I have the TII ECU in it.
Yes, I have the TII harness as well.
What else will cause the injectors not to fire besides the ECU being bad?
Surely not all the injectors are bad. We checked and they are all plugged in.
I hope someone can help me!!

injectors should ALL have +12v on one side. the other side is a pulsed ground from the ECU.
DID you remember to hook up the ground thats under the TB (like 3 black wires that go to a ring terminal to one of the bolts on the rotor housings? this is the dedicated injector ground.
make sure the AFM is connected.
make sure you have a good connection at the injector resistor pack.

If anyone else has an idea, feel free to throw it out.

If you check the injectors for 12 volts, leave the meter leads in place and spin the CAS by hand to see what effect it has on the meter reading. You should see the meter reading cycle from higher to lower voltage if the injectors are getting the signal to spray.
If the injectors are getting the signal from the ECU, then maybe they're all clogged. Have they been sitting a while?
This thread might help, because the first post has some ideas on what you might check.
