Ok here goes guys I could really use some help on this. Im new in the B13 game, i come from stroked small block fords and carbs.

Picked up this B13 91 ser two weeks ago and i love it. So I started cleaning her up and putting her where she needs to be. Well my dash bulbs were blown so i picked up some new bulbs pulled the instrument cluster and replaced the bulbs. It was late and the sun was setting so i called it a night after changing the bulbs in the dash. Next day I come out to turn her on and she cranks cranks cranks and the motor turns over it just dosent run.

So i say lets go back to basics Checked for spark. Its got super hot spark.
Then i check if the pump is running and it is. I pull the fuel line under the filter and fuel comes out like a fire hose. Ok then i reconnect and pull the hose that comes out of the top of the fuel filter and fuel is flying out of ther aswell. Now im stumped i pull the plugs and the plugs look dry.

Checked compression and it was withing 10 percent of each other.

Are my injectors not driving or could I some how of shorted the ECM. Where is the ECM on these. And before you FLAME me I searched for hours on multiple forums for help but im still stumped.

The ECU is located behind the ash tray area floor board area. You will have to take one of the side panels off to access it. The only thing you may want to check is that you didn't blow any fuses. Give this a try, hold the gas pedal down and crank it over, see what happens.

Did you hook the cluster back up? I'm not 100% sure, but it might prevent it from starting if its removed.

Nah, cluster won't have any problems causing it to start. I'm wondering if he didn't pop a fuse when he was changing the bulbs.
