No fuel through injectors
Hi, I am having a problem and was wondering if any of you could give me some assistance. I was driving my 77 3.0 Euro Carrera on the highway the other day and then it acted like it was running out of fuel. A couple of hiccups and then completely dead. Well, I have not been able to get it to start since. Originally thought fuel pump, but no, it is pumping gas. I have also replaced the fuel filter. I do have spark and was able to get the engine to fire on starter fluid. I pulled the fuel line from 2 of the injectors and do have fuel (at a pretty high pressure there) to the top of the injector. I pulled two of the injectors from the runners and had my wife crank the starter and pump the accelerator pedal. No fuel is coming through the injectors. (I also bled the system using the sensor plate method before beginning any of this). Any ideas-am I not getting enough pressure to make the injectors work or ?? Any help will be appreciated.

Probably not enough pressure. Could be a bad fuel pump, pump but can't pump enough pressure through the lines. Do you a cis pressure gauge set to check the pressure?

I don't have a cis pressure gauge. How much pressure is there supposed to be at the injector? Any idea where I can get a gauge?
