I just finished the waterpump replacement also did the serpentine belt after working on it all weekend, but then could not start the car very discouraged. I'm an experienced shade tree mechanic, fairly sure I didn't miss any connections or hoses. The only thing I was not confident about, was the fuel injectors- they were hard to pop out, I did not push them in aggressively when putting them back, but simply let the fuel rail push them as I tightened the bolts. Any suggestions?

Even if the fuel rail was slightly up, the fuel would reach the cylinders and allow the engine to start, it may run rough. I would guess something is unplugged or misrouted. DOuble check the crank sensor plug, down in the fron of the engine near the transmission.

waterpump replacement- fuel pressure regulator
Thanks Nick, late last night I took another look, found fuel gushing out of the fuel pressure regulator located on top the fuel rail. For some reason, I had taken out and put back the black metal clip on it. I hope I did not break it, but probably just did not put it back the correct way (though it looked like it should just slip in the slot). I'll go in and hopefully fix it in a few days, and let you know how it went. Many thanks, you guys are awesome.
