check the fuse under the hood for the ECU, it should be a 10 or 15, also check the back up fuse, make sure the connections between the car harness and the ECU aare good. You have not by chance replaced the key ignition wiring harness? Sometimes the pins need to be moved around for everything to work, if someone bought one for a different model honda.

Re: cant get the del sol to run (b16allmotor)
the car was running and you changed the head gasket and it wont fire? Is this correct? . It sounds like a ground from the engine to the frame. I had a similar issue with my crx and that what it ended up being.

turn the key to the run position and open the cover of the fuse box, pinch the sides of it and see if you hear the fuel pump prime.

Check the fuse for the battery and ignition under the hood. Stupid question but is the battery connected tight and connected correctly?
If there is no power to the main relay then there is most likely no power to the ECU , check to see if you are getting power there. I think it is like the last couple of pins on the plug A are 12V constant

check the fues labled ACG under the dash. Mine blew one time and I didn't get spark or fuel (I ended up shorting out the circuit one time with a fuel cut off switch)

How about where your engine harness grounds to the thermostat housing?
I've seen fuel pumps not work because that ground is off.

I would check your grounds. Make shure they are tight then retrace your steps of pulling the head, fuel lines, electrical connections, you may want to also check EVERY fuse in you fuse boxes, it sounds stupid but maybe you just missed a small connection or ground.

i just went to look for the ACG fuse and there wasnt a fuse there, so i put one in and it blew. does that mean i have a short somewhere.
