Default Auto to manual engine swap help

Hey guys. I have a 92 integra ls. my motor went bad so i pulled it and bought a donor car to pull a motor out of. The donor car had an automatic trans and my car is a 5 spd. I put my manual trans on the motor and dropped it in, and wired everything up. Now it wont start and im thinking it probably has something to do with different wiring harnesses. Has anybody been here before? or have any idea what i should do? i need help

What year is the donor car? No shouldnt be a problem make sure all is wired up right. In order for the car to run you need spark, compression and fuel soo its either your not getting spark or the motor has no compression..

the motor came out of a 92 as well, it turns over like it would if it were going to start but it never fires up. i know its getting fuel so ill check to see if it has spark when i get a chance. i had to pull the white plastic connector guide from inside of the main connector to get them to lock together so thats why i thought there may be a difference.
