Default b16 wiring in a 77 austin mini

so im in the prosses of putting a 2nd gen b16a in my 77 austin mini but it wont run..... i have put a 96 obd2a civic harness on it and and obd 1 conversion adapter. Im using a non chipped p30 ecu. I am not using any of the civic dash harness just powering up what i need off the engine harness plugs. The engine turns over with the starter, it has spark at the plugs and the injectors seem to fire, but it wont run. Any sugestions of places to look, certain sensors, special relays.....?I realize this is a very vage question but any input would be help full. thanks

Did you use a stock civic harness? If so, you need to add some relays and do quite a bit of rewiring to make that work..
