    Losing my mind. L84 swap no start.

    I have L84/8l90 E90 setup that I have been troubleshooting for a month now. Regulated fuel system set at 72psi but only getting 150psi at fuel rails and sometimes less. Vats and starter diagnostics disabled. I have spark and motor will run on ether. No current DTC present. Scanner reads RPMS and cam counts. Not seeing injector pulse and desired fuel pressure is reading 0. I also noticed when the motor was running on ether it was still showing 0 oil pressure. I have included logs. Log shows it running on ether at 4600. Desperately searching for help. Thanks in advance.

    Glad to know I am not alone HA. I am on my second computer as well. Keep me posted if you learn anything and I will do the same!

    Almost always when a "swap" vehicle won't run it's due to wiring, installation, etc. and NOT the PCM and/or tuning. As long as the VATS has been disabled correctly, it should fire and run.

    Thanks! It appears I am getting nothing from the HPFP so I will start there I guess. Everything else on the harness has checked out so far.
