ok, switched heads only to find out the new head had a bent valve a while back but it ran, now, i had new seals put in the head that was originally on the car, now that i have it back on, im not getting any fuel at all, not even with running a wire to the firewall connector from the battery, any ideas?
 
ok, it works now, i decided to run a wire from the battery to the fuel pump itself for two reasons, see if the pump is good and also to check continuity from that black wire with a yellow stripe at the firewall to the one at the pump, well no continuity, so i attatched the wire to the battery and got fuel,,,so i put the fuel like back to the rail and started the car this way, when i pulled the key it kept running till i pulled the wire off,,,now get this, i thought id listen to the motor turn over without that wire attatched, and the engine startes, and the fuel pump is getting voltage the normal way again, not sure what i did to get things right again,,but its working and im not complaining anymore =/
