Default No fuel to injectors

my turbo has a drink problem, its gone teetotal

the fuel pump primes and theres plenty of pressure in the system. fuel is reaching the distributor, comes out of the cold start valve and return feed, so i know fuel is flowing though it but there is no fuel getting to my injectors.

Have removed the injector pipes and cranked her over still no fuel, so its not blocked pipes/injectors...

im stumped any ideas

btw im running a S2 lump

I had this problem with mine. I had to play around with the CO screw to get it to throw some ful out. All I did was undo one of the injectors and turn the screw anti clockwise (i think) until the fuel started to come out when I turned it over. The best way though is to get it set-up properly cos you don't want to be running lean and burn your pistons out.

Hope this helps.

Cheers

cheers for the advice matey

i forgot to mention that i put in a 285T2 cam when i did the head, i think that this has caused it to run a tad lean at idle

ive got it running now, and will only idle with a small amount of pressure applied to the metering flap...what u think?

it needs a damn goos setting up now methinks
