    So lets make sure that you have spark and pulse.
    Follow this guys lead. He knows what he's talking about.

    The injector signal can be tested with a DVM set on "Duty Cycle". This is an easy way to measure pulse width. Take note of the stability of the signal. Get a reading from one of the other known good injectors and compare it to the reading from #3.

    If the injector signal is good then the PCM is probably good. Move on to a compression test. If the compression test is good then I would probably replace the ICM or install it on one or your freind's cars and see if their car produces the P0303.
