pdx.cervix is on a distinguished road
87 Si, won't start, was fine.

87 Si, 217K miles, fuel inj/elec ignition.
Was running perfectly on a hot day. went down block
turned off, tried to restart 10 min later, nothing. cranks &
cranks & cranks.

New plugs, spark seems fine on all 4 (held plug to car groudn with
plugwire attached, got spark), has compression (155 all cyl), resoldered
main relay & tested per crappy chilton's manual, is ok. no pGMFI/Engine
light coming on, saw no engined fuses underhood, all fuses underdash
just fine, no lights blinking on ECU, fuel pump whirrs, got the right amount of
fuel when disconnect return line & filled bottle for 10 sec. I'm assuming
its fuel related somehow?? Look visually @ timing belt,seems just fine, fiddled
with timing by moving distributor back & forth. checked rotor & cap, seems ok. I removed the distributor, & it seems ok.

Any suggestions? I cranked engined & removed plug, not sure if plug is wet
enuf or what the #%!?? I dunno, hate to go replacing distributor, ignitor & lots of other crap, w/o knowing what's wrong. Don't have a friend that has the same car either.
Thanks if anyone has suggestions on what to try.
