Throttle body issues - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I recently put new intake gaskets and valve cover gaskets on my 87 V10. After putting it all back together she wouldn't fire up. I noticed that there wasn't any fuel coming out of the injectors, so I poured some down the bore and she fired and died. I suspected the injectors so I tested with a 9V battery and could hear no clicking. But I have never tested injectors before and I wonder if the 9V is enough to get a reaction. I am also wondering about the ignition module, since I have no idea when it was last changed. What do you guys think?
