Brought home first Fiero. 85 SE 2.5 auto 75k miles. Was told it needed a fuel tank when I purchased it.
Installed battery and have fuel past filter and seems to have good pressure behind it but will only run with gas down tb. What’s next? Car show tomorrow that daughters want to take car to. Help!!

test injection fuses and see if the tb is plugged in and gas fuel actually ran to it, unfortunately she's probably gonna miss the show since if that tb is bad it's a bit of a wait to get a rebuild kit or working unit.
I know i have 2 working ones. one 84 indy unit on a shelf and one 85 SE unit that I trust and use daily

So there is a fuse for the injector itself? Located in the fuse panel or hidden elsewhere?

Yes there's a fuse in the fuse box, labeled "inj 1" i think, v6s have inj 1 and 2. Should be 5 amps I think.
