Joe, if the injectors spray constantly with the key on even though the
engine is not turning then that is a big problem. This will drown out
the spark in a flood of gasoline real quick.

The ECU is the most likely culprit but a short in the injector wiring
could do the same thing.

Do you have a volt meter?
Where are you located?
