If the engine is flooded, it can sound like it has no compression. Put the acclerator to the floor after you start cranking. Do not pump the pedal. (ever) Just crank. If it is flooded, it will possibly take 20-30 seconds to clear.

I tested the injector plugs with an nod light. The light was very very dim but at least there is something there at all of the 6 injectors, right? I then pulled my plugs and they are all fouled, and one has exhaust leaking from the bottom of the procelain. What kind of plugs do you guys use when you boost 19-24 psi?

denso platimun or iridium. heat range one step colder than stock.
Or copper if you change them every oil change.

Hi everyone, ok im very puzzled i have checked the wireing at the ecu and at the resistor just like jetjock told me to, It all checked out. i checked the all my plugs at the injectors with an nod light, the light was very dim i could barely see it. i also pulled all of the spark plugs and they were extremely fouled. i blow the holes out with comprassed air and let the sit for 24 hours then replaced the with new ngk iridiums, they were new denso iridiums. i have 150 psi in all six holes, i have fuel pressure, i have spark, the timeing is on, what in the hell can be wrong the my supra??????????????? please please shed some light on the problem, i have spent 12000$ on this car and did all the work my self, im not a complete retard when it come to my supra but im just lost. maybe i missed something stupid, i dont know.
Thanks for you time...Stas

I had a similar problem with my supra. I had fuel pressure, spark and the injectors were bieing pulsed by the computer (I checked by putting a test light between the injector connectors and the computer pulsed them as they should.)

It turned out that the camshaft timing was not set properly by the mechanic who rebuilt my engine. He had taken off the gears and had not lined them up properly. The car started immediately after this was rectified.

To check if your cam sprockets were installed correctly.

http://born2drv.com/TSRM/Service Manual/ then go to IG section and step 17.

If you end up where you are supposed to you can rule out cam timing. My timing was 180 degrees out.
