Default ‘84 XJ6 won’t start duel to fuel issue

Just rebuilt head and reinstalled everything. Car will fire up but only with starting fluid. Sent fuel injectors out to be rebuilt. Getting spark and all but will not turn over by itself. Can see fuel is getting to fuel rail but not to injectors
thoughts appreciated….other than I’m clueless

The 'could be' list can get a little long, but here's an easy place to start:

At the rear of the water rail you should see a bundle of black ground wires...5 or 6 or 'em.... under one of the bolts. Make sure they are accounted for and secure. The entire fuel injection system grounds here. It would be an easy mistake to accidentally leave them dangling during installation of the cylinder head.

Cheers
