frustrating

Alright I finally got my car running so I threw on the valve cover and they were the usual pita to get on. I had my dad help me and he pulled on the wiring harness a bit trying to get the cover under it. My tps is just connected by wires twisted together but it ran with it before and they are still connected. Now after puting on the covers I tried to start the car and its turns but the injectors arnt giving any gas. So whats my problem?? I'm so frustrated i would really apreciate it if someone could help.

it sounds like you already know your problem, you just dont want to hear it. you should never try to cut corners and not put some kind of conector on there to relieve wire tension.

Not I dont really think thats the problem, the injectors would still shoot gas even if the tps was messed up.

If you are sure the tps wires are OK, you may find the connections to the distributer might have been pulled off. The wiring in the engine bay looks like it was designed to be pulled loose if you even just look at it.
