help with egi main relay

k so i was driving and i pulled up to a stop sign and my car stalled on me. i was a bit afraid that it flooded on me so i pulled the egi relay with a screw driver then when i was taking it out i saw a spark.... i replaced the relay and all i get is it cranking... i noticed my power fc's commander isnt turning on aswell.. so i dunno where to start?...
i checked the inside fuses and there all good.. any help would be awsome
thanks...

Start with a quick compression test and go from there.

a compression test wont show anything because the engine is cold and its flooded.... it wouldnt be accurate.

Then you don't completely understand how helpful they can be... Even a cold engine can reveal if you have "even" compression on all rotor faces. In general though, if your compression is horrible cold, it's horrible warmed up as well.
