Changed intake gaskets and now no fuel, any tips?
My intake started leaking water so I pulled it off, cleaned up stuff, bolted everything back up and it won't start, seems to be getting no fuel and I can't hear the pump running, it fires right off if I pour some gas down the TBI, any thoughts on what I might have left undone or not hooked up properly?

umm interesting. did you leave the injectors unplugged? possibly damaged igniton control module..you used to hear th epump running? kind of odd for it to just go out.

Yes the injector wires are hooked up, although when I went to remove them one of the locking tabs broke off on both injectors, they were hard and brittle, but I don't think the broken locking tabs would prevent them from firing. And yes it ran fine before I shut it down, it was just leaking coolant badly.

When I did a motor swap not too long ago it wouldn't start it took about five minutes or so before I remembered that the injectors weren't plugged in. Definitely worth looking at. ha ha!

Never mind, I'm getting old and I forgot about some wires I had unhooked by the battery, I hooked them up and all is good now, thanks
