Default 90 zr1 no start

Have replaced ignition module under intake and had ecm re-built, car will run on carb cleaner, I have checked all fuse and ohmed injectors between fuse and ecm with all reading between 12 and 12.4 ohms. I have no idea what to check from this point? Also vehicle has no codes and data all appears to be correct??

good fuel pressure on gauge, has spark or wouldnot run on cleaner.

Somebody put something other than fuel in the tank? water?
Using the fuel rail (and being very careful) drain some out.

When you say it runs on carb cleaner, is it running or just trying to start?
I'm skeptical that it is actually idling. The ignition module provides the start up control until 400rpms and then the ECM takes over.
What is good fuel pressure? > 47psi?

How many pounds of fuel pressure are you seeing at the rail exactly ?

Was any maintenance or repairs done to the car since the last time it started properly?

Sounds like ECM is not getting signal from eith cam position sensor or crank position sensor. If no signal then no command to injectors for pulse.

Welcome onto the boards there...

How LONG does it hold fuel pressure? Static pressure (and bleeddown time) is WAY more important than dynamic pressure...

I have 47-48 psi that hold well, when innitially crankling I get 1 injector pulse and it may pulse once in a blue moon while cranking.
