Default 93 RS won't start please help, solid CEL

ok so my DA will not start now. I just got it running with a b18b1 in it on the pr4 ecu. the map sensor had a vacuum leak so i swapped out the vacuum line and it won't start now. i checked my codes before i messed with anything and there was none. i check my codes after it won't start and it's a solid cel. i heard that meant a bad ecu so i used a buddies p75 and the solid cel went away but it still wont start. any ideas??

Does it have spark and fuel with the good ECU?

okay u need to start from the beggining this prob is always something easily over looked. heres what i do when i have a car that wont start eliminate every possibility. 1 spark i just pull a wire stuff a long bolt into it and tough to my header 2 fuel hold a flat tip screw driver on them while u are trying to start the car if u can here/feel them clicking they work or stuff a light tester in the the plug into the yellow blakc wire it should have a constant 12 volts, 3 timing check tdc check wires to see if timing is on, 4 compression do a compression test in all 4 cylinders. i just had the same problem over looked the whole no compression problem did a valve lash and it works great now goodluck.

make sure all your connectors on your wiring harness are connected in the right places and also check all your ground wires .
