Injector Problems??? Help!

Okay so the other day I changed my fuel filter. Haynes says to relieve fuel pressure by removing the fuel pump fuse, which is *supposed* to be near the battery, but of course wasn't. So i undid the two injector fuses and tried to start the car. the pump primed, but the car wouldn't start, just turn over. So I change the fuel filter and also the plugs, and to my surprise the engine just turns over but doesn't start.

I've got 45 lbs of pressure to the fuel rail (tpi), i've got spark, and i know the filter is in the right way. I'm guessing the problem is with the injectors or hopefully not the ECM. So far 3 good old boys and one GM mechanic are baffled. You fellas got any good ideas? I'd really appreciate it.

Maybe too obvious, but did you put the plug wires back on correctly?

Rule #1, don't always go by Haynes.
As I answered in one of your other three or four posts on this topic. Did you put the two fuel injector fuses back where they are supposed to be?

yep all the wires are in there in the right order, the fuses are in there damn good (triple checked while still searching for fuel pump fuse), the fuel pump flow is right, and a helm's book is in the mail. I got nothin.
