96 Olds Ciera running issues
Help!!
So I have started working on an old car that had been sitting in the backyard for about 6 years. It started when I first started working on in at and ran for a little while. We found out the gas tank was completely rusted from the inside out. Here is a list of everything replaced so far:
fuel tank
fuel pump
fuel injectors
spark plugs
battery
wires
fuel lines
starter
alternator (Tested)
bled the lines
My question is, why wont the car stay on now? I can get it to kick over but it will not stay on. what am I over looking? any assistance or suggestions will be much appreciated

I assume you changed the fuel filter when you changed the lines, but in case you didn't, start there. LIke Justin said, check fuel pressure at the rail.
The fuel pressure is good, but still no dice.... I was wondering if anyone has the wiring schematic for this particular engine type, I checked the manual but they do not show it and I want to make sure that I didn't cross something when the injectors were replaced.
