Vats killing injectors?

Could it be possible for vats causing my car not to spray fuel? When i go to start my car i have to wiggle my key to get vats to read the key cause it is wore down .. but my car wont spray fuel unless I prime it then it sarts and sprays and i read a post saying somthin bout vats doing this.. is this possible?

Yes this is possible. The VATS tells the computer to operate the starter and fuel injectors when it reads the proper code resistance in the key. The fuel system is primed when you turn the key to the on position. By the way, did you get the e-mail I send you with all the information concerning the VATS?

to remove vats, ground the yellow and black wire on the starter relay. simply snip the wire, leaving enough to add a crimp connector with a ring end , and bolt it to a suitable ground.

*The vats module grounds the starter relay, after it recognizes the correct key.

(Note: color is from a 94 Z28, may or may not be different)
