Have Spark, No Fuel?
Hey everyone,
I got my spark going, double checked with timing light at coil, and at the plugs, it's definently sparking. Now when I turn it over it acts like it is about to catch, but when it does it dies again quickly. I have a supercharger so I have a fuel pressure gauge and it is showing 40+ psi after fuel pump cycle when I turn the key. The fuses are okay. Any thoughts on what this could be now?
Considering changing the fuel filter as the one that is currently on there has been on since new (one of the few original engine parts left on the car in it's 83k history.)

P.S. Car is a 96' LT4. Stroked to 383 with procharger.

Well the fuel pump is turning on with the key, but i'm not sure how to check if the injectors are firing. The car intermittenly sounds like it is going to catch, and then it goes away and all I hear is the droll sound of the starter. I can't imagine why the distributor would be out of alignment as the car died while i was out driving. Anyone clue me in on how to diagnose the injectors?
