Default zc/d15b vtec swap in 89hf no starting

So i have all the swap in the car. I have spark and pulled the plugs and they smell like fuel. Timing looks to be set right. Tdc and cam gear at 7 oclock mark. Obd1 injectors with the resister box deleted. 4 wire O2 sensor wired in amd vtec with a ry wire harness. The car keeps cranking but doesnt turn over. Distributor set in the middle until i can start the car. All 3 grounds connected along with testing 3 z6 ecus. Im going to try and put the obd0 injectors with resistor box back in and see if that works. Any suggestions as to why its not starting? thanks in advance.

Compression? Try pulling the rail with the injectors attached, then put the key on II and see if fuel just dumps out.

I'd check to make sure you didn't swap the two white wires on the distributor when you swapped the plugs. That will cause a no-start condition.

So I figured out the problem. Turns out I do have fuel. I have a code 10. I swapped the iac plug and the iat sensor plug and it starts right up. Only problem is I still have an intermittent code 10 and 12 on my p28 ecu. I'll trouble shoot the code 10 but why am I throwing a code 12? I don't have an egr lol. Anyone have the pinout on ecu side for obd1? I'll check continuity in the wires. When I drive the car after I reset the ecu, I don't have a code for a while then I get a code 10 again. Thanks for your help guys

Ok so it's pin 15 on connector D for iat sensor wire FYI.

If you had the IAC and IAT plugs swaped your code 10 may be from a melted IAT sensor. Remove and inspect it. IAT uses 5 volts, IAC uses 12 volts.

So tested the iat wire and it is getting 5v at the plug. Checked the iat and it was out of spec. Replaced and works now.
