I am in the stages of trying to get my car running after installing MSII with the relay board and EDIS-4 and my EFI set-up.
When I turn it over it sounds like i'm getting just plain dry cranking, none of the ignition or fuel seems to be doing anything.
I guess I need a place to start. The sensors all seem to work when the key is in the 12V position (not cranking)
The LEDs flash on then, but when I crank they are not flashing or anything.
I guess I need a place to begin (would problems in the EDIS cause the EFI to not be doing anything etc.). Otherwise I may just take the EFI, throw a carb back on and try and get the EDIS running on its own first.
Hope you can help,
Bryan

I think you need to first make sure you have spark - and spark at the right time. Check using an old plug or spark gap to see if you have spark on all cylinders. Then use a timing light to make sure #1 is firing 10degrees btdc. If that is all working, then it is time to check the MS box and its wiring. Do you have access to an oscilloscope? That may help you a lot.
