Assuming she cranks..
Ok, put your foot to the floor ( throttle right in) , then turn the key to start
She should turn over then go, fingers crossed :cool:

so i reverse my actions and went back to the first rail with the blocked injectors...away it went.
so the injectors are all blocked up.
time to source another rail and injectors.

Why not reco the spare set of injectors. It will be about 30-35 an injector and they will be good for 7-8 years maybe longer if you run 98 octane.

if the injectors you put in have been sitting around for a while they may have siezed up, try giving them a light tap with a wooden hammer.....worked for me.

or get more modern EV6 bosch injectors, for similar money.
703, 777 or 784 work well depending on the year.
