The temp 2 sensor has one wire to the sensor, the other goes to ground. A wire may be broken in the harness. Try connecting another ground to it.

Injectors are working fine, tested... and spaying fine.... but thanks, i will double check just in case....

Grounds were check and cleaned... like everything else.... like i said, the only false readind was the temp2, but this one was replace... and it's still giving me a bad reading.... wire to the ECU was replace, reading good... but still no start...
