Thanks.. found the problem

We started turning the engine over and shaking the wires and sensor connections. Found that the bottom sensor on the fuel bowl had naked wires shorting out, CPS probly needed changing anyway. Guess i wont have to take the radiator cap off and drive a chevy under it after all..Thanks for the info
