Seen it happen with a low battery.

Running a single fuel pump or dual? Hotwire kit? Check the fuel pump relay, underhood fuse box next to A/C Compressor relay. Same relays so you can swap to check it works.

Check your crank sensor and oil pressure sensors. Helped a buddy of mine a couple of weeks ago with a motor swap on his ctsv and he had these connectors swapped and had the same type of problems. Good luck hope this helps
