13bRE turbo e6k, idles for 3 secs and dies
Hello,
I am having a problem with my car and need someones help please
The car starts well and idles nicely, albeit a tad slow, but dies after 3 seconds.
I can't keep it running with the throttle open or closed.
Here is a video:

Aaaaand the data log:
Fuel pressure is fine, pump runs for 2 secs after the engine dies.
Spark is present from start to end (seems to still occur whilst it dies)
Which leads me to think injector pulse is not existant, ie. e6k issues?
I seem to have RPM the whole time so I don't think it is that but I'm pretty new to this game...
I have not locked the timing yet as it wont idle for long enough.
I used the "I don't know what I'm doing method" of installing the CAS with the two points lining up with the bolt holes.
Has anyone experienced this before?
Any help will be much appreciated.

Not touched an E6K for a long time, but have you tried just increasing the the amount of fuel in the afterstart and warmup enrichment?
Odd that injectors drop to zero for a second even though there is an RPM signal. E6Ks were known for trigger problems. How is your CAS wired up?

Thanks for the reply.
No I havn't tried increasing the fuel, I'll try that today.
Here is what I have done with the CAS:
CAS Red Yellow - trigger
Green Green - home
White Red - Input B
White/black Blue - Input A
