Last night I finished my head/timing install. After starting the car for the first time, I got a cel after about 5 sec., so I shut the car off. I tried starting again but no go, no spark and no fuel. I am getting fuel into the fuel rail, but not into the cylinders( I pulled a plug and and no fuel entering the cylinder). I checked the cas and it is aligned right, and the fuses are all good(in all 3 locations). Anyone have any idea where I should start checking for problems, I am also trying to get one of my buddies to bring up up his logger to check my stored cel codes. Any help would be appreciated. ALso Mpi fuse is good, along with new plugs.
 
I know on my Dad's eagle his MPI relay went out and that caused the problem with no fuel but if your fuel pump is working then it should be fine. Go ahead and turn the key on so everything comes on. Then turn it off and you should hear a click noise by the ECU not too long after you turn the power off. If you don't then it might have finally died.
 
I just swapped ecu's, and still same problem, MY ecu actually worked fine in my buddies car. I also tried 2 different loggers, and neither would work in my car(data error). I am really totally confused now.
