    OK folks. The problem is now fixed. There was a short in the 5v ref wire as shown in previous pic. I fixed that and then reinstalled the harness and it was better but different.

    I decided to pull the entire harness, nspect and make all connections more robust. I then found the 5v reference wire had rubbed through and was shorted to ground. This could cause some issues I am sure of that. I plan to reinstall the harness tomorrow and report back to you all. YourPal AL

    To test the excessive leak down injectors theory, do u think I can remove the high pressure lines at the pump and see if I have fuel spitting out during cranking ? This should prove if the ECM is controlling the pump or not...thoughts? Your Pal Al

    Very interesting reply Cliffy. Thanks so much for the speedy reply as well. Do the injectors leak off immediately? My problem happens the second i shut it off and then try to restart. Also this is not common rail injection. Does that make a difference?
