SR20 starts with no fuel, doesn't start with fuel

I have an enthalpy ECU.

Today, i installed another FPR from a nismo adjustable because i didn't have the tool to test the psi.

the car starts because of the flooded cylinders. (with the FP fuse pulled)

but when i put the fuse back, and try to start the car, it just turns over and over.

injectors have been tested and cleaned by dwerks. so they are good.

it's a stock FPR, but i dont feel the likely hood of it being bad is the problem.

any other solutions?

Hey dude. I had a similArissue, unplugged fuel pump fuse and it actually started and idled but wouldn't drive. Put fuse back in and it died.

Turned out to be a massive vacuum leak.

So either check ur maf and wiring or boost leak test all your couplers

Ok do you have the gauge now to see what the psi is while priming?

Do you have a torn Oring on your injectors? That would cause both a fuel and a vac leak... Enough fuel to "flood" the engine.

i have not touched the injectors since last week.

injectors were also sent to dwerks for test flowing and rebuilding.

Ok well you understand a vacuum leak doesn't mean vacuum lines, it means your car is sucking in unmetered air.

And even though it was running last week your symptoms sound like a major vacuum leak.
So once you finish the boost leak test, then you can say that wasn't the issue

Check to make sure you didn't swap the fuel lines
