    Ohm your injector harness. If you disconnected the plug for the injectors does it still lose fuel pressure . If they are good pull the front of the intake off. Either the orings for the injectorsare bad or a pintle is stuck or orings for the fuel lines are bad.

    I discounted the fuel injecter harness and it stops spraying. I'll check the harness but I got a feeling it's the fuel ecu.

    Maybe the harness is rubbed through and touching block? Like above ohm test the harness end to end and each wire to ground with ECM and injector unplugged
