alright I need some input. I rebuilt my motor, set the valve lash started it let it idle for 20 mins and and turned it off because I had really bad valve tick. the next day set the valve lash again and drove it. the motor makes a really loud tick under load and at idle. The motor over heated due to my failure to clamp down the heater hoses. so I started it again and got it home and let it idle while I figured out where the coolant was leaking from. I found the leak and clamped the heater hoses down and I made sure the motor didn't overheat again while doing this. I go to start it again and it started but had trouble starting and then it stalled 20 seconds later and won't start. when I spray carb cleaner in the intake manifold the motor will fire which means it is a fuel issue. My dad thinks my ECU is bad which is causing my injectors not to open but I'm not sure. it is not my main relay either I replaced that and nothing happened. tommorrow I am going to check the fuel filter, fuel pump, and I would like to try a different ECU but I don't want to buy one just to have it not fix the problem. I also tested my resistor box for the injectors and its fine.
