Not good
this happened to me after my rebuild, first check the injector connections squirt some wd in them, then the ptu connections (give them a squirt) plus the coil pack connectors & cas, if still no go it may be fludded (dont take much) so pull the fuel pupmp fuse & turn engine over for 10 seconds, put fuse back & give a try:::: if still no go i found i had an air lock in the fuel pipes going to the pressure regulaters so disconected the pipes & crank over till you get fuel up there...but i'm sure it will be solved before you get this far!!!! im no mechanic but with a little process of elimination you get a long way...good luck!!
