need help with swap

need help with wiring s13 black top into 1989 240sx
i had a fully uncut wire harness
on driver side inside the car there is a big square box with lots of wires
i took the sr20 harness and connected to that box
routed the sr20 harness to the front of the car and all the way around to the passenger side
wired the ecu exactly how heavy throttle said to
then extended all the plugs from the sr that had to make it over to the opposite side and pluged them in
pluged in all the vacuum lines and hoses
filled car with oil, coolant, and trans fluid
started the car up but will not start
just cranks
took out the fuel line and didn't see that fuel was running through the line

does anyone know what the problem is and how to fix it?
what does heavythrottle mean when they say the remaining wires go to the check connector?

If there is no fuel then you need to either wire the fuel pump in or you blew the fuel pump fuse, pump could also be bad

One of our customers had the same problem, the pump just wasn't getting power. He wired it right to the ign switch with a inline fuse and it did the trick.

the same thing happened when i did my ka24de swap, it would just crank and there was no fuel. The harness under the dash next to the ecu was wired wrong and because of that the fuel pump wasnt getting any power. Once i had it wired right, it fired right up.
