Kamil,

You most likely have only intermittent fuel getting to the injectors. Whenever fuel can come out of a place where it is not supposed to come out, remember that air can get in. Air is compressible and wreaks havoc with the injection system as it is designed to have no air in the high pressure side of the system. Put the lines back on, run it to purge the air out (I do not think your model has a hand pump) with the starter until it fires, and it should smooth out fine. Jim
