If you think about it. Having 2 injectors that don't fire is a long shot that it's a problem with both injectors. The common link is the ECU as it is what completes the ground for the injectors. So it was a grounding issue through the ECU and once I swapped them out it ran perfect. I have a USDM ....ECU in there now instead of the JDM and it works just fine.

well sitting for 9 years isnt good most likely the coolant seals went and flooded the rear
