It might just be me but I don't have a clue what this guy's talking about half the time

What barrel? Are you carrying a gun too? Oil barrel? Exhaust pipe?

No code indicates the fuel injector circuit is OK (although I'm not sure if a bad injector would always show a code). I have looked for over a half hour at two different parts fisches for your sled and can't find the barrel (gas chamber) that you refer to. Pefhaps you could post a picture? Also, proofreading your typing before you post would help us make sense of it easier.

Um, yeah, you're looking for codes on the injectors themselves? You're not going to get any lol. The codes are going to be flashed by a LCD on the ECU. Looking at it(the ECU) from the front, its on the right hand side in the alluminum housing. Its cover by a plastic eye looking thing. The LED is red and should flash once when the ECU is turned on.

Yep turns out it was a bad ground from the ECU to the frame. The ground had always been there but when I repainted the frame last summer it must of f*** it up. Now its grounded directly to the battary.
