Default 93 grand no start

It is in my garage now and I want to fix it this weekend?
Last month I replaced the ckp sensor after it broke down,I had to do the job twice as the bwd one did not work.
Now it has no codes,40psi fuel pressure,spark when I tested #2 wire + plug,
seems like everything turns ok, engine just turns over.

What should I be checking on these jeeps??
all stock 5.2l, runs exellent when running,

I just replaced the lock/key set and ignition switch as the lock broke.
I was hopeing that this was it..

so I will be at it tomorrow,any ideas? please help??

I don't think 40psi fuel pressure is enough.

Really that would be cool, it seems like a fuel issue,
I will try to find the correct pressure, I don't have a book.

so as I was testing the injector wiring harness it started to fire up,
I think as it would short through the test light it did something?
I had it running with one injector unplugged,then plugged it in.
when it first started it blew out smoke then cleared to normal,
I put some lucas fuel cleaner in the last tank??

off to wheel around......

You're right, 40psi is good for this rig.

but it still wants to leave me stranded,it died about a mile away at the trailhead,I will go get it later in a 98 chevy truck 289k that has never broken down like this,in fact with my 30+ years of driving only used cars/trucks.
I have never had anything like this,my future with jeeps may not happen.

Great spark,on time
injector harness working?has power and test light blinks in time.
has fuel pressure,not sure if injectors are bad?

if the cpk sensor is messing around and not throwing codes?,I think I may push this heap off a cliff and blast it a few times with a 12g.

So it started and drove 100 yards and I towed it home.
I found it with no spark finally, and tested the wires to the coil,
the test light light well on time so there we go,something broken that I can fix.

there is a future afterall...
