e6k car and not running correctly.

hey whats up, i have a 88 turboII that i bought that already had a haltech installed. i knew the guy that owned it before me so i know that the tune worked at some point. i got the car and it wasnt getting fuel so i replaced the tank, put in a walbro 255, cleaned the hardlines out and replaced the fuel filter. then i started it and tried to rev it and it was rough to say the least, backfiring and not reving freely, and if you tried to put load on it, it would just die and have a hard time starting. so, i pulled the primary and secondary rails and cranked it over so i could see the injectors spray. the primaries were spraying and they didnt look horrible, one of the secondarys was spraying and one was not. that is where i had to stop this weekend, i borrowed some injectors from a friend and i plan on trying them this weekend. i really want to drive my car and im not getting to. it has emission removal, no tb mod though, stock dp to gutted cats and silencers and is cut off at where the y was, and some cheap cone filter. i know that it had week compression on the rear rotor from sitting but i was going to try and get the compression back with the centrifugal force of a high revving rotor. any suggestions. my car is ghetto fabulous but im not rich so please bare with me. thanks guys

Those secondaries should NOT be firing during cranking. Have you given some thought to reworking the K? Reload map/check connections, etc...

i've thought about reloading a base map and starting from scratch but the harness itself looks to be a purchased piece because it is very nicely done and there are no exposed wires. all the sensors have factory style plugs. i am going to try injectors and see what happens, i think that one was leaking and probabley just shitting up the whole system.

Make sure both your primaries are firing and not the secondaries. You may have crossed the connection between the injectors.

Double check the harness, the FPR, and check if the pump is wired in correctly to the ECU.

Make sure the fuel injection is set to STAGED.
