Got spark and fuelat the rail but the fuel injectors are not firing.
I need help bad. This is a from the other site
http://ef-honda.com/main/viewtopic.php?t=31354
I went to autozone to get a noid light and all the plugs are working fine. I thought it was the injectors so I switched them with a diffrent pair and still the same thing. Nothing. I am getting great spark but no fuel. I tested the fuel injector resistor box that was fine but just be on the safe side I got a diffrent one just test it too. Still no fuel. I have checked all the grounds and cleaned them all. The engine, trans and thermostat grounds. Is there a ground that I over looked?

Yeah its getting great spark. I have a second set of injectors that i throw in and they are not work either. I had a noid light hooked up to the injector plugs and they all are working right. Im just out of ???

I tested the resistor and it was 5 ohms. I went to the junkyard and got a diffrent one. I hooked it up and the same things happen NO start. 8-O I went to autozone to buy a noid light to see if there was anything being sent to the injectors and the noid light said there were working fine. I had a secound set of injectors and I swapped them out. Still no start.
I test the injectors one more time with the noid light. The injectors were not hooked up and the car started for a sec. If I put starter fluid in the throttle body it will fire up with no problems but will not stay running. Im just running out of ideals. :evil:

pistons have anti-friction side coating and ceramic top coatings
Eagle H beam rods
New type R oil pump
New Type R water pump
New Type R timing belt
Balanced and blue printed crank
B16 head
Skunk2 Pro series intake manifold
Crower valve springs with titanium retainers
1999 GSR cams
Skunk2 cam gears
Cosmetic 3 layer metal head gasket
Port and polish head and port match intake manifold

It sounds like you're being very thorough with your testing. About the only suggestion I have is TOO MUCH fuel. I've had that problem tuning standalone in my car before. If it's flooding out, it'll do that.

Yeah that would be great if there was fuel coming from the injectors. The injectors are not firing and the psi is 40psi. But thanks for the ideal.

by not working, do you mean you pulled the rail off and tried to start the car and see if fuel is being sprayed...
or are saying you checked the wiring, which reads good, and the car won't start...
just because the fuel pump is running doesnt mean that it has the proper amount of fuel pressure to start the car...
sometimes the pressure will be too low to start the car, but if starting fluid is used the car will start and continue to run, maybe poor performance maybe not
or it could not have enough at all, or TOO MUCH
for instance, a s10 truck or blazer/jimmy, needs 63-65 psi of pressure, if its BELOW 57psi it will not start in cold weather unless starting fluid is used.
CHECK FUEL PRESSURE BEFORE AND AFTER REGULATOR IF POSSIBLE
i would check it at the filter first
trust me now, it might say NOOB , but i've been in this field of auto mechanics long enough

Re: (youmayneverknow)
Not to sound like a NOOB but doesnt any read the stuff that is posted?
40 PSI is right. Fuel Pump Works right. Fuel at the fuel rail. Spark from the spark plugs. Throwing no codes. Cleaned and install new grounds.

I did this today and the injectors all fired but they all fired with the dizzy off. I laid the dizzy on the engine and spined it and I got shocked. So I dont know what the means.
