As above, fuel pump relay/wiring and the earths on the rail.

Injectors are fine proved them in another car! fuel is getting sent round the system just the injectors arn't opening. Think I'm gona have to have another look fuel pump relay wireing then because my'n was cut off on the loom and was never sure if it was wired back in right!! :d
(dose anybody have a pic of what wires go were just to be certain)? :thumb:

if fuel gets to the rail, the fuel pump relay is fine.

test the positive wires at the injector plugs when turning over and if your getting a live at all and if you are then the ecu isnt pulsing the earth

Should the fuel pump not cut out once it reaches the required pressure thoe? my'n just constantly pump's fuel round when the ignition is on!!

Black is connected up and have tried 3 diffrent ECU's 2 being a PK type and the other being a PJ type (if thats correct)?
Sorry for all the Q's just realy want it on the road now!! :confused:

Have you got the engine management light plugged it to see if you've got any other faults?

EDIT: Just a thought but have you got the fuel pipes on the right way round from the tank to the fuel rail?
