I believe I've seen an increasing number of posts recently by people with Aeromotive AFPR problems..... might want to try a "search"

I checked the fuel press. and it is ok, so I pulled the rail up and had someone turn the car over and the fuel injectors were not injecting. What could be the problem?

Thats a good question

I would just make sure all wires are connected.

Your fues pressure is good so....

Beats the h$%% out of me.

Do a search on areomotive and see what you find.

Did you check the fuses for the injectors? Did you check to see if you have +12V on the colored wire at each injector harness connector with the key in the "on" position.

Fuel press goes up to 100psi when I try to start the car and 40 psi when turn the key to the on position.

I'd say put a stock regulator back on there and get your money back on the Aeromotive. You'll be much happier, and the car will run better.
