Here's the story. got this car that had been parked for about 7 years. Before parked, it would run then cut out. instead of fixing, they parked it.
Neither fuel pump was working, and the previous owner thought that the fuel pump going out was the initial problem.
I put in new fuel pump under car. I am trying to start car by putting fresh fuel through the system using the main pump with hose to gas can.

It won't start. Dunno if fuel problem now, or if has to do with original problem.

So my question?
Could the fuel rail and injectors be bad? is there a way to test if injectors are working? what would be your next thing to try?

Putting fresh fuel in.
fuelrail




Fuel shoots out of this when I stop turning the ignition. I put hose back on.
Shoots out



And a little help with these please.
