Trouble starting 3.1L V6 Firebird

My buddy's car will try to turn over but will not fire up. He has 41psi in the fuel rails. And when you pour a little gas in the intake it will fire up but stall out. Any suggestions?

Check to make sure all fuel injectors have 12 ohms. Bad fuel injectors are common on the 3.1. I had the same problem with my 3.1 camaro. new injectors solved the problem. You can purchase a complete set for just over $200 plus core charge at autopartswarehouse.com. or you can buy them individually.
