you have to set TDC.

some one will help you, im on the run.. if you have no help by the time i return... ill help.

also go to the how to section and download the fsm.. it tells you have to set TDC.

 

check the fuel psi to make sure the fuel pump has enough to keep it on

 

alright havent had time to get on here but got it running and the motor is bad.no power wat so ever so im assuming no compression but dont have a tester i am now selling the car if anyones intrested let me now its a 89 5 speed

The motor is prob fine, it prob is just timed badly.
