Hi i've just converted a 1.0 Nova to a 2.0 16v XE using the standard Motronic ECU. So far I have connected the 12v Constant Live and 12v Iginition live to the Car (from the ECU) and the thick Blue/Red wire to the fuel pump.
When I crank the car over the Fuel pump relay clicks and the fuel pump whirs... but the engine will not fire up. So I checked for a spark and there is one, and I checked for fuel pressure in the rail and there is.
The engine came out of a 2.0 converted Corsa (that I fitted the engine to and it ran fine and started everytime). I haven't yet connected the extra dash board wires as I thought the engine should start without them. I've checked everything the engine side and its all connected correctly with the Iginition leads in the right order.
Any Idea's? And does anyone know where the other Blue/Red wire connects to? (Is this Fuel pump related as well as the large Blue/Red one?)
Cheers for any help/Assistance
