    its either not spaking.. or not getting fuel to those cylinders

    have you checked its sparking on those two?

    if its sparking, then its not getting fuel. if its both cylinders, and it happened simultaneously i would be looking into the loom.

    compression test?

    Head gasket may have blown between the 2 cylinders.

    If you've got spark, and you're getting signal to the injectors it has to me something mechanical? Logically.

    Have you had the injectors out and the rail and tested them out of the head?

    I'd put money on it being injectors. 2&3 are fired at the same time, so if ones shorting, the other wont work.

    Just pull them out of head and turn it over all attached to fuel rail and loom, soon see if fuel is coming out.
