Default changed engine on 2002 fiesta 1.4, now won't start???????????????

PLEASE CAN ANYONE HELP ...................
right here goes i have a fiesta 2002 1.4 zetec and the engine gave up on me,, so went and purchased another engine from a 2006 1.4 zetec and had it fitted.. this is where the problems start,,,, it will not fire up at all,, it turns as if it wants to but it just doesn't!!!!!!!!!!!!
so someone suggested the flywheel was the cause so i got a new one from ford and had that fitted,, and still it won't go... it will start for a second but then it dies out and sounds real deep as it does this.......
DOES ANY ONE HAVE ANY IDEAS OR COME ACROSS THIS BEFORE ???????

Right..... Have you checked it's sparking? Have you checked for fuel getting there? Are you using the sensors from the old engine or the new? Could be a duff crank sensor maybe?

Just a thought. When you say the old engine gave up on you....what actually happened? What fuel pressure are you getting at the rail? Did you hear the new engine running before you bought it?

Also, where abouts are you based? (I'm an iPhone passionford-er and it doesn't show the location info )
