Anyone here know about fuel injection?

[mr henderson]

I'm currently working on a car that has been fitted with the DOHC engine from a Sierra, mostof the original loom and bits have been used. The FI is controlled by an ESCIV.

I can't get it to start. It did run for a few seconds when I first tried it, but since then, nothing. I've tried all the usual stuff. I'm getting a good spark at the coil to distributor lead.

When I disconnect the fuel feed to the fuel rail and direct the pipe into a jar,then operate the ignition, there's an initial spurt of fuel, which then slows right down. I think maybe this is the action of the fuel damper?

Anyway, anyone got any ideas?
