VE Swap Issues
Just finished swapping another VE into my P11. Now the car will not just but it is hrdro-locking itself with fuel in Cylinder# 3. The fuel lines are hooked up correctly, fuel filter line goes to bottom of rail, return line is hooked up to FPR.

Is there something im missing here?

o-ring on the no 3 injector might be damaged and leaking or the injector could be sticking open.

Yup, very possible to have pinched the O-ring when the injectors were changed.
One way to find out is to undo the rail and lift it up, turn the key to ign, watch for fuel leaking from around the seal.

Failing that watch for fuel, or bubbles from the injector tip.

I checked the injectors and they are not leaking. But when I check my Fuel Pressure gauge it is reading 50psi and it should be around 40psi.I checked for vacuum leaks and cannot find any. What would cause 50psi fuel pressure if I am ussing the stock fpr?

What fuel pump you using and is it staying on and not cutting off? Listen to it next time you turn the key to the on position without starting it. This may explain the high FP but not the #3 cylinder over spraying. If there are no leaks that may be an ECU problem. Try putting in another and see if it does the same thing

I'm using the same fuel pump we installed 7 years ago, Walbro 255. The cylinder #3 flooding has been fixed, had injector harness hooked up to wrong connector. I check for vacuum leaks but can't find any, the intake manifold has never been off this block which ruled out a bad gasket

I guess I will try my Nismo FPR when I get home, but that won't fix the route cause of the problem.
