If you have fuel, spark and compression it will start. A bit of oil in the chambers will bring compression up after sitting.

I am getting fuel to the injectors but I do not think they are opening I have put fuel into the intake after using the method to clear out a flooded engine and it runs for about 3 seconds then it dies. I was wondering if the ECM was bad....all my fuses have checked out good.

I ohmed out my injectors at 13.6 ohms each which is too high for that year model, given it is bone stock. I changed the MAF from my turboII and the car had a ecm sitting in the passenger seat when I got it so I swapped it too. After putting fuel down the intake and replacing the intake tube I fired it over. The car will run as long as i continue to feather the throttle, as soon as it comes back down to an idle it shuts off and will not restart on its own. WTF do I do now?
