I've been finishing up swapping a ka24de into my 89 hatchback between school breaks since the summer. Everything is hooked up but it hasn't fired yet. The spark plugs spark, and the injectors fire. I've timed the distributor, and double checked all the timing marks and cam positions. Are there common things I could have missed hooking up that would cause it to not fire? And I don't think I have one, but how would I know if I have an S14 ecu instead of an S13? I assume the S14 wouldn't work on the engine since it's a 93'.

Hook the fuel lines up correctly? Simple mistake could change a lot
