1988 300/6 fuel problem

Sat for at least a couple years, after some rigging of the fuel system I have finally got good pressure to the rail. Plugs are bone dry, a splash of gas in a cylinder gets it to pop. Truck has electrical issues from previous owner I have not completely tracked down.

So why am I not getting any fuel to the plugs? I have looked at 3 of the 6. Could the injectors just be plugged or is there an electrical issue I am not seeing to open the injectors?

you should start by checking the computer for codes. also there should be two grounds hooked up to the neg battery terminal besides the ground cable to the starter.

Auto zone has a noid light set part number 27161 for $25.00 very usefull little tool, it plugs into each injector and will pulse a light if your injector is firing. Its very useful for diagnosing efi problems.
