I think I got it straightened out. Whenever I look at these schematics, my eyes cross and I wake up face down in a puddle of drool.

UPDATE: New Plugs New Fuel Pump Restored Injectors Distro Okay Spark Test Light = Have Spark Noid Light Indicates Injector Pulse Okay New CPS (not sure about readings) New Fuel line rings and clips at rail I have spark and weak fuel delivery. A decent amount of gas drips from the pressure regulator when vac hose detached. I can reinstall the old CPS if anyone thinks that's an issue. I'm thinking the Fuel Pressure Regulator is the problem. But, I'm a woodworker, not a mechanic.

If "Yes" for the hose, what hose to-from where? Please.

New plugs installed, still no start. Haven't checked distro yet. But, I noticed I a nipple without a hose attached. See pic. Should there be a hose there?

Was wondering why that was a "good" sign. But, I know so little about it, I didn't ask. So. It's not a good thing.

Removing the belt? Thanks for that, but I need to get it running before I go there.

Not yet. Based on this first plug, I'm going to replace them all.

Alright. If I don't post again, I blew myself up.

I just pulled the vacuum off and fuel did leak out.

I've only pulled one plug. Will pull them all now. Is there a test for the regulator?

I assumed not. Not sure why it's moving, but I'll look into it. I "fixed" the leak at the front fuel rail, but still no start. Fuel pressure is good while cranking, but once you stop it drops straight to zero. Is that normal? Should pressure stay up while key is "on"? Also, my battery is weak from all the tries. It's charging now, but can a weak battery play onto this? I bought that Noid Light kit as suggested by @ratrapp, but I need to read how to use the dang thing. While I'm learning a lot, I am not happy at all about how much time this is taking. The graphic I did because I needed to do something fun amidst all this stress!

WOW! Mine is way too close!

Thanks Pete. Just checked to be 100% sure and my belt follows the same path as the diagram. Is it possible that my power steering is too high? I had that replaced a few years ago. Hard to believe it would move. Also, when I press down on the belt belt, how much deflection should there be? And should the AC compressor move when pressing belt?

I have non-working ac. The compressor is there.

See pic. It the belt supposed to be touching here? If not, how do I adjust it?

That's tomorrow's plan!

Resurrecting this ancient thread. Has anyone done this upgrade to remove the plastic clip connector but also keep the OEM metal fuel lines? I really hate those plastic clips and like to have them gone.

Well, I have spark. Fuel pressure whilst cranking starts at 39-49 then suddenly drops. At the same time this is happening, I noticed fuel dripping from the fuel pressure regulator/fuel line connection. This may be the problem. Thoughts?

Just to verify. https://www.harborfreight.com/11-piece-noid-light-and-iac-tester-set-97959.html Thus will work for renix MJs?

You're right. I'm going to HF today. I know the fuel pressure is low as it doesn't spray. However, a pressure gauge will be helpful. The injectors work. I had them all out, cleaned and tested them. Will test for spark tomorrow. You're only 3.5 hours away. Just swing by tomorrow! LOL! I admit it. My troubleshooting skills lack organization.

Best I could. Not an easy task with a socket extension up there too. LOL!

I notched out the holes for, supposedly, easier replacement. Would that have affected the function?

.25 + or -

It's this meter.

Check that. It's volts.
