Hi,
Right off the bat I think of the fuel pump, as maybe it primes but then looses its prime when they car starts. If that checks out I would start with the basics, Fuel, fire, and compression. Check the dizzy or coil and see if its continueing to fire after the car starts. I have had coils fire only half the time and stop working after 30 secs of running. Then I would check the fuel starting with injectors and fuel pump.

 

thanks alot on the info how could i check each thing correctly...
im gonna be honest this is my first swap had a lil help here and there but was forced 2 do alone cause had people front on me...

 

well if its a obd1 motor it doesnt have the crank sensor on the crank shaft next to the oil pump thats whats causing it not to run!

 

anymore suggestions
