1985 z28 tpi car turns over but will not start
Fuel pressure good
New plugs cap roder tested plug wires and coil good spark
It's seems like it is trying but it jjust wont bust off I even tryed jumping with my truck for extra volatge and still wont start ...... tps is callibrated i also installed a fuel pump cut off switch i was told it would help with the flooding issue Please any suggestions this is very annoying I drove the car 3 weeks ago

Did anything change since you last drove it? Blown fuse anywhere?

Hmmm... I can;t remember what atrocities were commited in the '85 tpi, but if it were any other TPI car, I'd suggest unplugging the MAF and trying to start it. If it does/doesn't, you go from there.

I don't own a gauge i wish i did but the car is wetting the plugs while trying to start so i figured it had enough pressure ?

I would get a gauge to see if your fuel pressure is low or not. Will it start with starting fluid?
