| 1998 FORD TAURUS; V-6; 3.0 DOC. 120,000 miles. While sitting at light, engine started shuttering, did not respond to accelerator, and then suddenly took off. A week later, did the same thing, but this time did not recover, and then died. Engine turned over, but would not start. Fuel pump and filter replaced. Mobile mechanic came by and plugged into computer, no fault codes. Coil pack, plugs, and camshaft position sensor replaced. Getting fire to plugs and injectors are receiving pulses. Can hear all injectors “clicking” while engine is turning over. Placing #1 at TDC compression checked timing, and the marks lined up. Fuel pressure at rail with key on is 42psi. All grounds cleaned and tightened. All fuses checked both inside and out of car. Wire looms inspected for chaffing and/or exposed wires. Just for kicks and grins, sprayed ether into intake, engine tried to run on the ether. I really need a fresh thought on something I may be missing…PLEASE HELP!

Did you try to pull an injector and watch for gas to spray. Cant recall off the top of my head but where you took your reading from on the rail is it before or after the pressure regulator.
