Default b16 crx wont start

did a b16a swap into my 91 crx now it wont start. it satarted and ran after the install and would bog down when i got on it realized the regulator solenoid wasnt hooked up right so i fixed that and started it up fine but now it wont start. when you turn the key on the check engine light doesnt come on and the fuel pump does not prime no spark either. checked the fuses and they all seem fine the relay and distibutor both get power. i thought it might be the ecu so i tried another one and still the same thing. any ideas what it might be

I had the same problem and I changed the fuel pump and it has worked fine since.

Same thing happened to me after my first B16 swap, turned out to be a bad engine/tranny ground.

i have tried a couple different main relays with no luck. where are the ground locations at i know there is one from the front support to the valve cover, the one from the battery negative to the tranny and the one i added with the vtec subharness to the thermostat housing
