Do you mean your are getting no fuel fron the injector pipes? If so I would suggest that the fuel solonoid is sticking or the fuel filter is clogged up.

Well, if you are getting no fuel at the injectors but you have it at the pump input, either the pump is faulty, unlikely, or the fuel solonoid is not opening, how did you check it?

OK right, if you have fuel going into the pump body but non coming out out of the injectorsI can only conclude there is a problem with the pump, but its very unusual. Is that a mechanical pump with timing adjustment from an injector sensor?

Its such a long time ago I can't remember, but I think if you click on 'log in' it will ask you for details, otherwise you could search existing mail with your problem.
