The above confirms:
spark @ approximately the right time
compression
intake air

The injectors require quite a few PSI. to open and spray.
A pressure gauge and 3 way valve is almost essential to work on CSI/Kjet.
I almost always install a new fuel filter before testing Kjet.
Likely possibilties are:
Pump not getting enough fuel
pump not making enough pressure
pump can't pump enough through clogged filter
Yer welcome
