Re: "hotwire" fuel injectors?

Since the security light is not on, maybe the fuel injectors are not being shut down by the anti-theft system. If the starter relay is jumped shouldn't the motor start if the right key is used and the switch is turned to start or is there something else that would stop fuel injection?
