Ground wires are intact, checked, checked again, and checked 5 more times. On the distributor, I'm a lazy ol' cuss, so I just remove the hold down and pull the distributor as a unit, after marking its location. When I do a head gasket, I remove as little as possible.
I'm going to try a noid tomorrow and see if I do have a signal to the injectors. It appears that I don't, or that's what I suspect at this point. I have spark, I have fuel pressure at the rail, but it just won't fire up and the plugs are not soaked as you'd think they'd be after trying to start it this much.
I have no clue what the PO did to the car. He said it ran fine but with a leaky head gasket. He loaned the car to his buddy and it ended up being towed back to his house weeks later because the head gasket REALLY went south. I have a feeling his buddy isn't telling him the whole story.
Any other things I should look at?
