Those symptoms are common with a failed ECU....

- You have fuel pressure?
- You have spark?
- Haven't recently had any valve timing problems?

If you have checked all that stuff and it's ok, I would bet it's the ECU

i have checked the fuel and it is pumping fuel to the injector and the zuk will start if you put gas in the throttle body. but the injector will not spray fuel.

We regret to inform you your ECU has died.   :'(

You might have a break in the wiring, Check the connector to see if you have 12V on one pin.  Check the wiring back to the ECU for continuity.
Have you tried pulling codes from the ECU? you should get a Check Engine Light if the circuit is broken.
Try connecting the injector, very briefly, across the battery and see if it will squirt then.
