    Car not starting I'm stumped

    I have relaxed both of my cars fuel pumps the relays click the fuel pump one clicks numerous times. I can't find anything via Google search. The car has spark and it seems like the system is getting pressure. I know for a fact it's not the computer I have a spare and it still dosnt start.

    What's been done

    Brand new fuel pumps
    New ignition system
    Relays checked ( it clicks a lot)
    Ecu checked

    What are your suggestions

          My car had a similar problem recently. Had fuel spark etc...
          Ended up being the wiring to the injectors.
          Check your injectors with a noid light.
          Hope this helps.

              CPS or injector harness is corroded. would be my 2 guesses.

                what does this mean? does this mean you pulled the return line to check?

                    Fuel reaching the rail doesn't necessarily mean that the rail pressure is correct. Tee a gauge into the rail supply line and see what the pressure is while cranking.
                    The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.
