Will it start with carb cleaner sprayed into the intake, if so check for 12v to one of the injectors, key on.

UPDATE:
SHE RUNS AND DRIVES MINT!

i tested for voltage at the injectors, it was there in full force, so i pulled one.

no gas was coming out.
swapped it with an injector from the old motor and bang!

then i check ed the other 5 injectors: nothing.

swapped em all out, and it is DONE!
my 8 days of personal hell are over!
