Default Escort turbo engine not starting

Hi all, I am in the middle of putting a series 2 escort turbo mfi engine into my mk 2 fiesta. I dropped the engine/box and loom etc out then got it running no problem untill i seperated the management bit of the loom and tried connecting it to the xr2 loom and now the engine will not start There is 1 green/brown wire coming from the ecu plug pin number 8 which i dont know where it goes I have got power going to the ecu, coil and dissy but no power going to the fuel ecu. Any help would b much appreciated Thanks
