Thanks to all for your suggestions… I tried to be very careful about aligning the 3 timing marks when I was installing the timing belt.. So I am hoping not to have to revisit checking the timing belt install.. I had a couple of minutes and tried:
1. First switching injector wires 2 and 3 and the engine would not start.. Switch them back and it started..
2. Then I put a screwdriver to the injector body and heard a clicking on #1 & #4 nothing on #2 and #3.. I did the same test on another 240 and I heard the clicking on all injectors..

3. I again removed one spark plug wire at a time and engine did not start with #1 and #4 wires removed. With #2 and #3 it started and ran as rough.

That is all the time I had this morning…
