hi.
I think a Noid light is not just an incandescent bulb.
might be though I suppose.
--SEVERAL I LOOKED AT WERE
they are specifically made for testing for injector pulse.
no flash  = ecu is not firing the injectors.
--SAME AS LED TEST THOUGH RIGHT?

why do you think you have fuel pressure ?
--PRESSURE GAUGE
the crude way is crank it so it should have fuel pressure, and remove the
plug  ( 7 mm hex size ) from the fuel junction by the distributor there and
......
put a rag over it .....undo the screw - fuel should spray out of their
really pretty hard.
--IVE ALSO REMOVED INJECTOR, FUEL RING INTACT, AND MANUALLY INITIATED THE INJECTOR W/ 12V TO CHECK PATTER AND FUNCTION

have you heard the fuel pump run ?
--NO BUT I HEAR THE RETURN "FILL"
how about just hot wire the fuel pump and see if that will make the engine
start and run.
---i'VE WATCHED THE PRESSURE BUILD WHILE CRANKING, 36psi, IT'S THERE

"it's just a blockage or leakage of fluids or electrons."
--ELECTRONS, DEFINATELY ELECTRONS

SPECIFICALLY THE ELECTRONS TO THE INJECTORS
