Bump for a colleague in need of help.
What happens is: as you turn the engine over, the injectors pulse only once, and will not pulse again as long as the engine is beeing cranked.
There is pressure at the fuel rail, the engine makes 175psi on all 4, there is spark, there are no engine codes... we tried 3 different ECU's, all behave the same way.
There is 12v at the injectors, after the injector resistor, the ECU pulses ground to complete the circuit, but it only happens once.
