so did a leak down test and found that in cylinder 4 it is leaking through the intake valves...will have to check clearance to see if its too tight or not...

I would start with basics. Inspect all the ground wires ran in the engine bay and maybe follow the injector wires, just making sure nothing stands out.

found the problem.it was two wires under the fuse box that goes right under efi relay.wired those two wires up and it started right up.well somehow if i drive it for awhile the efi fuse blow again.ill see how it goes tomorrow when i drive it to work
