Default My car won't start. I need help!!

Hey I just installed a used Throttle Body in my 90 civic with a 95sohc vtec motor. I put a new gasket and everthing, and it won't turn over. What do I do??
I've replaced my currect one because the throttle angle sensor broke and my check engine light was on. I installed everything back the way it was and it just keeps trying to start but won't come on fully. WTF!!! I really need help guys.

It shouldnt matter if you dont have a throttle body, the car should start, you have another problem.

Wont turn over ...
and it won't turn over.
meaning it wont start... or it wont turn over, meaning its not even cranking
not cranking---when you turn the key on and the dummy lights come on
do you hear the relay turn off after a second or so.
did you disconect the battery. (alarm or starter kill)
alot of dealerships install starterkills on every car for insurance reasons
You buy the car and then they try to sell you the remote.
If you dont, they disable it
then you put in a new battery or jump the car and ......it wont turn over.
CUZ the alarm turned it self back on.
If it turning over and not starting check fuel, spark, or my guess
you probably unplugged something..ie distributor or the thingy on the throttle
body

HEY... IM ONLY YOUR ELECTRONICS DORK
