Update on someguy's nostart 760 700

Finally got the shop to figure out the problem. The nefarious fuel pump check valve had failed shut, preventing any fuel from getting to the injectors. I didn't have a fuel pressure gage setup and was doubting my diagnosis that it was a fuel problem because I had replaced the fuel pump and I could hear it run when I grounded the overboost cutout switch. Problem was that the new pump had the wrong fitting on the discharge, so I put the fitting from the old pump on the new pump. The fitting is the check valve.

Should have it back on the road as soon as I get the check valve.

Thanks to all who had offered their encouragement and advice.
