so my when i start my car only cylinders 3 and 4 fire causing it to be completely undriveable. i checked compression and all seemed to be good. i checked for spark and all cylinders had the same spark. then i listened to my injectors and they were all clicking. does anyone know what the problem is? could it have to do with my ECU? Please help me. THANKS
 
haha wow shows how much help you guys were

turns out my car sat for like 5 years because the guy who originally owned it stopped driving it when the ecu went out.

the fuel tank rusted on the inside and slowly clogged my injectors 1 and 2 with rust.

oh well at least now i know i'm not crazy because i checked everything to was to check (except for that i guess)

thanks for the help anyways guys i really appreciate all of you here
