3) What are you using for a test light and exactly where are you connecting it? A 20 watt bulb across an injector connection may mean a new ECU. Get a set of "noid" lights if you want see flicker or better yet a multi meter with a dwell or duty cycle function.

5) See answer to 3.

First, thanks to all the replies for suggestions. After some testing this morning, here is what I now know: 1) fuel pump is not clogged and is pumping fuel.

2) No fuel is flowing through the injectors

3) With a test light I am getting power to the injectors, however...I get a steady light, not a flicker as per Bentley (and others). This is with ALL injectors disconnected and engine cranking.

4) Scott, I do have a remote starter, her name is Clarice and she is 14. Now I have to take her to the mall to spend some of her Christmas money in exchange for helping me out this morning-I was getting too cold anyway, as all this has been in an unheated garage. But you're right, I do need to get a real remote starter switch-cheaper in the long run!

5) Why would I get a steady light at each injector and not a flicker? Thanks, Jeff
