gas is getting to tbi but nothing is coming out
I have a 91 camaro tbi 305. I am getting gas to the throttle body however nothing is coming out of the injectors. It just died on me out of know where the other day and the check engine light is on now. Do guys think its something in the tbi that blocking it or is it something electrical? It does has good fuel pressure so its not the pump.

Re: gas is getting to tbi but nothing is coming out
I would doubt that there would be enough time to get a gross blockage of fuel, it would have to have been running like crap progressively to get to the point of no fuel what so ever. Check the fuel injector fuses, should be two (one for each), and then start chasing wires. I doubt both injectors would cop out at the same time, but it is a possibility. My money is towards either fuses or ECM, although frying an ECM isn't simple.
Pray tell, how can you tell for sure that you have fuel at the TB?

Also, this is going a little towards the fuel pump troubleshooting, but in general it covers the same things that should always be checked during a fuel issue.
