Default Help, car won't start and it has us baffled, runs on one injector???

Ok, first off go easy on me. I know very little about the electronics used with Hondas

Friend of mines car is out in the garage.
I helped him with doing the turbo setup on it.


The car has ran before with the turbo setup, but the turbo gave out do to an oiling problem. So he took it off and reinstalled the stock injectors and ecu.

New turbo is now on and ready for boost
On the setup now it has an obd2 jumper harness, and a obd2 computer chipped with crome. Same ECU it was ran on before with the turbo. Only real change was a switch from dsm blue tops and resister box to a set of high impedance rc440's with no box.


Car started right up on the first try and idled for about 10-15 seconds then died and the battery light came on at the some time. All the grounds are good and we can"t find anything unhooked.
We did check for spark and it is fine
Injectors are getting 12v when key is on and cranking, but I can't feel or here them ticking.
While cranking it doesn't pop, fart, hiccup, anything. And it doesn't ack like it is getting any fuel. But if I unhook all the injectors but one it will start. lol And even sort of run. But then if you hook up the other three you get nothing.

Any ideas? He would be posting this but his web access is down. I'm pretty sure his user id here is EH3.

Thanks
Randy

if the turbo was the only problem with the old set up why don't you use the old injectors?

it sounds like your injectors are pumping too much fuel into the other cylinders, its wat you call a leaky injector. are you u a fuel pressure regulator or stock?

Several problems with this...

1). OBD2 harness with an OBD2 ECU in a 92-95 EG.... WHY?
2). Crome is for OBD-1 based ECU's, not OBD-2
3). While not impossible, I highly doubt you have a chipped OBD-2 ECU. I think you meant OBD-1
4). You removed the injector resistor box and didn't properly repair the harness and have an open ground.
