ok got an 87 BII eddie baur 2wheel drive auto with the 2.9 i first problem no power to the inline fuel pump fixed that. still wont start got spark im thinkn that the injectors are not working because while cranking it over a fuel line poped off the inline filter guessing to much fuel pressure. im going to check the injectors but was wondering if anyone has ran into this problem before.

Are you referring to the stock in-line filter? Tell us more, when did it run last? How old is the gas? Have you done anything to it lately, tune up or such?

yes the factory inline filter it has 2 of them a canister stile and the quick connect one that is after the high pressure pump and that is where the line poped of the filter. the guy i bought it from said it ran when he parked it sat up for about 6 months or at lest that is what the guy told me . the gas was bad but i drained it all out. i changed plugs wires cap and rotor both fuel filters the fuel rail is getting pressure i poped the check valve on it to relieve pressure i got spark fuses are all good checked them with a test light. im gettin power to all the relays on the fender by the starter solenoid sometime this weekend im going to get a noid light to check injectors.
