if you don't get much help here, you might want to try PMs or going to the A-Spec forum on the board. wish i could be of more use. sorry.

also, it would help to be as specific as you can with your questions. for example what exactly is the trouble with the wires? that sort of thing ... pics might help as well.

good luck.

Yeah if you have any trouble, I recently installed a new fuel system on my car so I can help you with it. 1st thing, make sure you wrap the teflon tape int he correct direction and only use it on the square fittings, not the tapered ones. Make sure everything is tight when your done.

You do know that you've got to remove your emissions and ACV right?

When you get done, prime the lines by jumpering the fuel pump and check for leaks. If you have a small leak, it can catch your whole engine bay on fire. Go slow and be very thorough. I did this and didn't find any leaks. I put it back together and ran it for about an hour and took the UIM off again. I looked really good at every fitting and as it turns out, I had a small leak that created a pool of fuel on the top of my engine. Glad I caught it or I would have barbecued my baby.

PM me if you have any specific questions.... I'll be glad to help.

could it be the main fuse? Did you short a circuit anywhere? Check your fuses.

Does it try to turn over?

how did you wire the injectors in? Did you have the battery connected?

I blew my main fuse and I could have sworn up and down that it was good. I checked it twice and I think the light played tricks on me through the little view window. When I finally pulled it and looked at it in the sunlight, it was pretty clearly blown. Just an anecdote, hope you find it.
