the question u need to ask is what plug under the hood is not plugged in at all or not connected all the way. im asuming the trans was not done in a shop and the motor was let to hang once the trans was removed and it prob pulled a plug partally apart.



i am a hot rod builder and love to see a new fuel injected monster in a old car. latest project is a 96 4.6 ltr. in to a 32 rat rod all comp controlled and daily driveable.
Tough question because if it used to run, it should run after tranny and fuel pump, since it cranks and has fuel pressure.



My best guess is that in order to take out the tranny, you had to take out the starter at well, and when you put the wires back on, you left off the power to the igntion or fuel injection.



Use an inductive timing light or spare spark plug to determine if you have spark.

If you don't, then it is a question of power to the ignition circuit.



Second though is just having fuel at the rail is not the same as having enough pressure.
has gas up to the rail you say? it could be the fuel pump regulator stopping the gas from reaching the injectors. in case you don,t know where it is, it,s bolted up on the fuel rail. it can,t be the pump or the fuel filter if gas is reaching up to the rail. and it can,t be the relay or the pump would,nt kick on. change the regulator and see if it starts.
