    Not starting Omni

    Swapped tps. Nothing. Swapped entire throttle body. Nothing. But I can go out and start up my 48 year old all original Chevrolet and that ----- fires right up. No problems there.
    So here's a recap.
    My timing is correct. I've done this before. Multiple times.
    My injectors are firing. No problems there.
    My fuel pressure is correct.
    Spark is working.
    Car runs when gas is sprayed in the throttle body.
    So here's what I'm thinking.
    The ONLY things I've changed while doing this are
    The fuel rail, known good injectors and the regulator. So here's what I've noticed. When putting the rail on the injectors seemed to go up in the rail quite a bit. So maybe those injectors are in the rail too far and they're not getting fuel what so ever.
    So here's what I'm going to do. I'm going to take that rail and regulator setup off and slap the stock ---- back on. Lets see what happens. If that happens to be the problem then I'm going to be pissed.

    Well it made it to a car wash a few miles down the road. So far it's good. I don't have a boost controller on it right now. Just straight vacuum. Runs good. I think I need to set the timing on it. I forgot that this has a Taft stage 2 cam.
    I haven't driven a 5 speed since this broke on me mid summer. Its like I never quit driving it. :-)
    Still up in the air about selling it.

    The gauge was reading correctly but it's hard to explain. That fuel pressure gauge should go on the pressure side of the line. I was thinking it went on the return side. So I hooked it up accordingly.
    Sorry Mr Omni. I won't call you a pos again.
    GAME ON!
