Default Fuel Problem! made it to the dyno but not ON the dyno :(

problem solved! 8 dollars at the local car wash to clean the tank, replaced the fuel pump and filter, new fuel filter, and drained the line.
fired right up at 50psi. dyyyno time

my first thought, the injectors don't have the strength to open with the higher pressure.
your resistor box may be too much resistance or you may have gotten high impedance injectors by accident.
it may also be your ECU...

we ohm'd out the injectors with the resister box on, 2.1 across the board. thought it was sort of low so we tested another new set and they ohm'd out the same so that checks out. (makes them low impedance correct?..anything under 5 ohms?) i thought it was faulty new injectors so swapped 1000cc is there (known working ones also) and still nothing.. ill try another ecu..

factory fuel/return lines
