Probably because they aren't grounds. at this point you may have fried the ecu by doing that, or a myriad of other things.
If you don't have a solid concept of obd0 wiring I'd highly recommend taking it to a professional unless you have a sizeable budget and lots of time for trial and error.
Upon buying that car I assume you didn't notice that either the CEL is always on or never turns on, which means it was removed. There is a procedure for checking obd1 codes in an obd0 chassis, I'd encourage you to search the forums for that.

It has a p28 chipped ecu and i didnt fry down to the computer it went to a connector but when i bought it i was told the battery needed to be connected and it would start the car sat for a year so it might have some factor not to sure. Everything powers up fine just when i go to turn it over it tries and cant fully turn over
