To recap bstevens,
Put your car details in your signature.
listen for fuel pump
Listen for clicking at fuel rails with key on
Check for injector power well cranking (buy the noid light)
Check that the Throttle Position Switch (TPS) is making it's click when the throttle is closing.

Hey Brad,
His name is Ben. He mentions it in his member car profile thread.
I hope we can offer some assistance in getting your car back on the road, Ben. Life is tough when your shark is down. Ask me how I know?

Ben,
Not sure how your weekend plans look but the weather has been nice lately. Maybe, if you haven't diagnosed your no start issues by then, I could ride over to Clarksville and give you hand with the diagnosis end of things. I wish I had some spare parts to pack along with me, but my cars don't have many compatible bits to your GT. Heck, it would be kind of exciting for me. I haven't ever even seen a GT in person before.

Hey Brad and Austin,
Thank you for the quick feed back. I will check what you both have mentioned then I'll see about getting the light. I thought the engine had to actually be running before you could here the fuel pump. I will listen for that. Austin, I may take you up on the help. Let me know what your schedule is. I'll reimburse you with gas, beer, dinner, whatever. Very nice offer. As I said, I'm still learning. I repaired 'high speed' helicopters in the Army. I am eager to learn about this high speed car too.

Austin, to answer the rich or lean question. Running extremely rich. Was going through gas like there was no tomorrow. Even had some flames coming out of exhaust pipes. Looked like a funny car. But not too funny
