    Car won't started after HC fix

    Car won't started after HC fix

    Update 1/12/13: So all fuses are working, I am getting voltage to the fuel pump, and getting 45-50 psi on the fuel rail. The car will start if I spray in carb cleaner while turning it over but won't stay running. 1) At this point the only two things I can think of are a) the injectors...
