need more ideas than that to help. for example, does the fuel pump run? do you get a spark on all 4? have you checked all your sensors are plugged in and working?
have a read of these pages first

Yes mate,fuel pump does run,spark at all 4 plugs,plenty compression,if fuel rail and injectors are lifted off together and you wind over engine,all 4 injectors fire in sequence,but not much fuel sprayed out,have tried 2 sets of injectors

ok, that sounds not too bad for a start.
have you connected the ht leads in the correct order and aligned the distributor correctly? it's quite easy to be 180 degrees out.
as a quick check, align your crank pulley before tdc just before the rotor arm is due at the marker on the dizzy body. with the ignition on and all plug leads removed, check that as you move towards tdc, no.1 sparks at the right time. rotate the crank half a turn and no. 3 should fire. another half turn and no. 4 should fire and another half turn for no. 2

Yes mate,plug leads on correctly and ignition timing spot on,was thinking it,s a fuel pressure problem as when you manually feed engine is pour petrol in to throttle body she runs no problem till all fuel is burnt,

when was the last time u changed the fuel filter..... could be a bad supply to the pump and its running at a much reduced voltage = reduced fuel flow and pressure.... combine this with an old filter that may well be blocked = even less fuel to the injectors.... another favourte,, if its been jacked up wrongly from underneath, the fuel pipes to/from the tank may have been squashed = no fuel to the injectors...
a few more ideas....

Hi dave,thinking now that the pump might be low on pressure as engine has been out for over 2 yrs going to replace filter and pump and see wht happens
