Default mpfi question???

my problem is that my car will not start. itll start for about a half second and die right out, and my check engine light and a couple other lights stay on when i take the key out of the ignition. so mainly what i am getting from wat ive searched is that its probably the ground or not enough of them. is this true? can anyone think of anyother reason why the car would do this? its not throwing any codes and ive checked everytbit of wiring like ten times over. thanks for the help in advance.

ummmmm

- First check for continuity on the injector wiring.
A1 pin to #1 injector .. and so on. (A3 A5 A7)

You're using a PM6 ecu right?

- Check continuity on the Distributor wiring.

Injector resistor box wired correctly?
(its not a ground... its a 12v+ converting to 5.5v+ going to the injectors.)

These are the common mistakes. Investigate, if you don't know how to use a volt meter, you need to learn to use one. Don't ask here, search google, or read the manual that came with the volt meter.
Good Luck!
