Default meatering head

im not geting any fuel past my metering head..the fuel filter is under presure and i got sprayed in the face with fuel so that is clearly ok.
if i take any of the fuel lines off it trickles out slowly if any
now i did have a fire and some wires got crisped but none of the plugs got fried...any other resons why fuel wouldnt get past the meatering head?

MFI Is extremely reliable once you understand it.
I assue you that its 95% probable you have a simple airleak.

Download this and study it, especially No:10.
