ok guys this is my first post and i cant wait for the flame fest im going to get, but hey, take your best shot, anyway, i had a 1995 dx coupe with z6 swap, and i owed some buy here pay here place cash on it, so i decided to pull the motor and put it in this 91 hatch dx i got for really cheap, so i put the d16z6 in the 91 hatch dx right, then i used the dx wiring harness, and and si dizzy and 91 si dizzy ecu, i converted to mpfi and used the resistor box and everything is wired up just fine, im using a vafc to tune fuel maps and activate vtec, well i would, IF IT WOULD START...
i have no pre 92 honda manual (since all ive ever owned was obd1), and i have no obd0 experience, i wired the dizzy wires up like im supposed to, and the injectors are all wired correctly, i pulled a plug and checked for spark and i got nothing, and i pulled an injector and checked for fuel and i got nothing, but the motor turns over fine, im thinking my ecu is junked (got it out of a junked 91 si and the guy didnt know if the ecu was any good cause the car just stopped running one day and it wasnt any of the normal reasons)
so i know this is huge for a first post, but a little help would be great, thanks...

you could have pulled the ecu out of the coupe and bought a jumper harness and ran everything from the p28 ecu and could have used the z6 distributor. i just thinks its easier that way. but you could check the main realy if its not getting fuel . can you hear the fuel pump turn on? or could be the ecu swap it out and see.
