So I have been having an issue with my starboard engine for a week or so now. I tracked down a fuel pressure gauge yesterday and tested the pressure in the fuel rail on that engine. It never blipped off zero so I swapped out the guts of the cool fuel unit over the last day. Now I am getting a solid 30PSI that holds for quite a while. However the engine still will not fire. So if I was having fuel pump issues and I ran the motor for about 20 minutes, is it possible that I ruined the spark plugs? I am not a fan of coincidences so I am looking for some sort of domino effect that is still causing the motor to not fire.

Thanks,
Kurt
 
a lack of fuel should not have damaged plugs like an overfuel condition would
do you have fire at the plugs and coil ?

I ran out of time yesterday. If it could be plugs I wanted to bring a set with me. When I go to the boat today I will check out the coil and plugs.
