Need some help.

What started off as replacing the manifold gaskets has turned into a nightmare. Long story short I broke a bolt and had to take the head off to get it out. Actually my buddy started ripping into it without muc thought of putting it back together. It is a 88 V30 with a 454. I got it all back together and it wont start. It turns over easily but it is not getting any fuel to the tbi. All the connections are connected and it doesnt sound like the fuel pump is kicking on. I dont know if I blew a fuse or even if there is a fuse or switch for the fuel pump. All I know is it is getting absolutely no fuel to the tbi.

Re: Need some help.

How long was it apart ? I know I have seen injectors stick in the past . Can you hear the injectors clicking(cycling) when the key is on or trying to start it . ?If not , lightly tap the injectors to unstick them . If so , I would be looking at the fuel pump circuit . There are guys on here that know plenty about fuel injection and I am sure they will point you in the right direction . Did you hook up all sending units , etc ? Oil pressure , etc . I cant remember if the fuel pump runs through any of the other sending units as a fail safe or not .
