I need HELP !!!!!!!!!!

Guys , Steve Help ! I just rebuilt my motor. I have checked the timing, I have compression but I dont think Im getting gas. I have fuel pressure but I dont know how to check the injectors. Does anyone know how to check them and where does the signal for them to fire come from? Hey Thanks Guys in Advance!

The signal comes from the computer. You can use a NOID light to see if the injectors are getting a signal. You can also use a mechanics stethoscope (the end point is a long thin rod) and you use that to probe the injectors to see if it is working/ticking.

You say you have checked the timing but is it 180 out?

no with the rotor pointed at the #1 plug wire and the piston up on the compression I think its dead on.

I read last night that you should not use grease to lube your injector Orings. I used the same stuff I put on the plug boots. Im wondering if that could have anything to do with it.

If you used dielectric grease i believe that will eat your orings
