First, try the ground to the injectors. Give it a good look-see, and make sure 
each one looks good. 

Doesn't this sound familiar? Did we all just go thru the "NOID Light" check 
routine for a similar failure?

Just wondering...

Subject: '85 1.9 - fuel issues.

OK - my bus won't run. We've decided it's a fuel issue for sure. It will
start and run well when ether is sprayed.

I've replaced the fuel filter and also swapped out a known good pressure
regulator. I have pressure. I also know I am getting fuel to the engine.

My only guesses at this point are that there isn't enough pressure - or for
some reason my injectors aren't working properly.

Any ideas on what direction to go next?
