Firstly I'd check your spelling of petrol, then the lift pump in tank, then the main under car pump, then the metering head and lines, and finally the injectors. Have you pulled the fuel flow pipe to metering head off and proved fuel to there 1st, before ordering injectors?

Sounds like the injectors are blocked.

Remove injectors and put em in a jar and try to fire her up. If they spray evenly you know your problem is engine related, if not its metering

In that case the metering head is blocked.

One thing worth checking is to remove the banjo bolts on the metering head that feed the injectors and then check the small filters under each one.
