Engine Mechanical problem
1987 Ford Truck 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic

THIS TRUCK WILL START AND RUN WHEN PUTTING STARTING FLUID DOWN INTAKE. IT IS FUEL INJECTED. WHEN STARTER FLUID IS REMOVED IT SHUTS DOWN. THE FUEL PUMP IS WORKING AND THE LINE FROM THE PUMP RUNS DIRECT TO FUEL RAIL. FUEL DOES'NT SEEM TO GET PAST OR TO INJECTORS. WHAT ARE MY NEXT STEPS?

Check the fuel pressure make sure its within specs-if okay-Get a noid lite and check for injection pulses at the injector/s harness-get back ASAP.
