    86 Shelby Charger, no injector pulse

    I'm finally trying to start my project for the first time in almost 4 years and I'm not having much luck. Anyway, bone stock 1986 Shelby charger. 55 psi fuel pressure after priming the pump a couple of key cycles, good compression, good oil pressure during cranking, I have spark coming from the coil, I checked spark at cylinder 4 by removing the plug and I have spark there, but none of the plugs show any traces fuel on them. I connected my test light to power and probed the grounds on the intake manifold/fuel injector harness and it lit up nice and bright so grounds should be ok. It appears that I have no pulse on the power side of the injectors. Any help would be appreciated.

    Check for corrosion on the connectors between the injectors and injector harness.

    These injectors are switched on the ground side so probing the power side will never show any flashing. Recheck and report back!

    Dont push the red button.You hear me?

    Alright got a good diagram from mitchell on demand. Looks like all 4 injectors get power from the same cuircuit as the coil and are group fired on the ground side via the power module, time to test stuff!

    My injector harness is a mess and needs to be gone through, but after messing with it everything started working. The car spit and sputtered a bit but never caught. I don't think the starter is turning it over fast enough, ill voltage drop the starting system tomorrow.
