after car was driven yesterday and sat all night I just checked pressure at fuel rail valve and its zero. - SO I do have a pressure issue??
(funny that car starts no issue at cold but hard at warm)

When doing my injector "test" yesterday I did not see any dribbles from the injectors, over the course of the day I kept pressurizing the system (key #2). I do not think my issue is at the injectors nor where the fuel rail is connected (I kept feeling for gas). It is not the elec. fuel pump as that is new, the fuel filter has been replaced. I do not have any issues of running out of gas at 1/4 tank (and I always run it low) so I dont think its the syphon pump.
I dont have any issues when the car is running, never see gas under the car. I do have to admit after pressurizing the system yesterday with the injectors pulled I did get a wifff of gas odor. Might also look through my bicycle tools for the tool to tighten a schrader valve?
And when I get time I think next to check the connections at the fuel pump as I think there are 4 of them them there.

THANKS for all the help!
