90 NA wont start after plenum pull & injector swap

Six weeks ago I started the plenum pull to change the injectors.I put a new fuel rail in with 6 new injectors. I have everything back together and the car wont sart. Everything is hooked up. Im getting fuel, idk if im getting spark. I ran ECU test & got 34 & 42. Now I changed the the fuel temp sensor from old fuel rail & i did a knock sensor bypass and i am still getting the same codes and is still not cranking up. Please help. I havent even had a chance to drive the car yet, brought it in may with 2 bad injectors and had it parked the rest of the time

The fuel temp sensor can potentially cause such a problem... clean the connector.

When you say you're getting fuel, how do you know? Many people cross the fuel send and return lines, which will prevent the car from starting...

if its been sitting for a while, and a two or four cycle additive to the gas tank, the gasoline must have chemically changed for sitting for so long, also dont do bypasses, ever. if its there, 1. it has its purpose and 2. it was made for a reason. the knock sensor assists the ckps and cps by knocking freq in the motor. and it wouldnt hurt to get a fuel pressure tester and being 100% sure your receiving fuel

there are a lot of parts on the z32 that people bypass becuase theyre useless. do some research before telling someone what to and what not to do.

Recommending fuel additives on a Z32 with pintle injectors is also ****ing retarded. I'm making the call right now - HexaggramJDM's advice isn't worth considering.

Fuel also doesn't go bad over the course of a few months... it takes a few years.
