WELL,
After a night of trouble-some hardware shopping at the local hardware stores I was finally able to run a fuel pressure test. I know that my fuel pump is fine because I took out the FPR and inserted a coupling that attached to the gauge. I figured out that if I turn on the ignition without pressing in the clutch I could here the pump whisle. The connection wasn't very good thus resulting in fuel leaks, but I got the reading that I needed and that the pump was capable of suppling 60+psi.

I put the regulator back on and hooked everything back up, thinking that the regulator might be stuck open I pinched the hose and tried starting the truck that way. Still no luck, just the initial put-pop-puttity-put. So I conclude that there is suffecient pressure in the line and that the pump and regulator are working fine.

I did however undo the air intake hose from the T-body and spray starting fluid up the intake manifold, keeping the MAF sensor hooked up. It ran as long as I sprayed. Is this normal? I thought that It wouldn't run as soon as that hose came off, no matter if the sensor is hooked up or not. Any comments on this? And how do I test the MAF to make sure it's good?

Also, How do you test the injectors to make sure that they are fireing correctly, or even getting a signal? When it comes to electrial stuff I'm not so smart so Elaborate! I have a Diagnostic terminal that is next to the battery/engine bay fuses. Other than that I won't know what you are taking about.

Thanks in advace!
