The pump checked ok, the filter replace was old anyways fuel injectors show power in one terminal conector ground at the other.
I desconect the fitting to the fuel reel comming from gas tank put a plastic bottle open the ignition and collected the gas so what can be the next step to check?

What is the actual fuel pressure reading?

Check for spark

Disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine -have helper crank engine over-do you have a snapping blue spark? If so-you have a fuel problem, check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel filter/fuel pump/pressure regulator and listen to the injector/s are they pulsing or hook up a noid light. No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil packs, distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors-
