Ok, first you need to know its a 1990 SC that I've done a 347 swap in.
Electronics are from a 1993 5.0 LX and everything is wired in, including EEC relay. I've had no major problems after the swap until now. The car has been running great for just over 6 monthes now and I haven't touched really anything in that time.
Last Saturday I took it out for about an hour, got a full tank of wawa gas. First time I've filled it up in about 3 monthes, i barely drive the thing. Car ran fine from the gas station home. Parked about 15 min start it up went about a block and the engine shut off. Didn't buck or sputter, nothing. Then it won't start. First checked fuel pump, its on and runs. Seems to have enough pressure but I can't check my guage is broke. New one is coming. Checked injectors, 12v at all of them with key on. Spark at coil, spark at plug. Changed idle speed control, changed EECs. All with no difference at all. Even changed the fuel regulator. Spray ether and the engine ingites but doesn't run.
Would a bad TPS or old coil have any effect on this? Seems like a fuel problem to me, but I've checked everything in the fuel managment and everything seems fine... The fuel pump is probibly only a year old and it sprays gas out the shrader valve if checked. Like I said I don't know the exact pressure until my new guage comes.
Any ideas?
