1800 ES just won't start 1800 1972

Hoping for some advise. I've spent a week trying to start my '72 1800es. It's sat for 3 years before I acquired it, so checked ignition with new points, cap, and plugs. Good spark at plugs. Fresh fuel pressure is 30lbs at cold start valve. Pulled the injection rack but injectors are dry when engine cranked. When throttle is opened with ignition on I should hear injectors open but nothing. I've checked the ground on manifold, and am about to pull control unit to check wiring connections or even unit itself but am a bit leary of messing with it, but why else would I have no power at injectors? Would really appreciate any ideas at this point. Thanks, Adrian
