Well, I don't have my Bentley in front of me, but I reckon the first thing
I'd do is plug a 12V test lamp into one of the injector connectors, crank
the engine, and see if there's power to the injectors (the light should
flash). If they're flashing and you have spark at the plugs, it ought to
fire, at least a little. If not, move on to check fuel delivery. Bad pump?
Bad fuel relay?
