ive recently bought a mk4 1.2 fiesta with a blown engine (r reg analogue) and a 1.7 crashed puma (w reg digital) then i set about completely stripping both and put engine gearbox ecu fusebox both looms key barrel transponder in to the fiesta. i came to start it and its trying but the petrol isnt reaching the rail. im not a mechanic but thought this was a easy conversion to start to practice for a mk2
if any one has any ideas i would really appreciate it
ive already put perol in and bypassed fuel cut off

 

I know this sounds stupid but have you fitted the fuel lines correctly? It's defiantly something stupid if it's turning over.

 

Is the fuel pump priming when you turn the ignition on?

 

Check the fuel cut off switch down in the foot well as it prob had a knock somewhere along the line

 

i think ive got them on the right way not 100%
i cannot hear it but wasnt sure can i test it without taking the fuel tank out?

the puma had abs air con central locking and power steering the fiesta hasnt will this make a differance?
also this is a track car has no dash carpet seats blowers or anything

 

Turn the ignition on, you'll hear the pump whirr for about a second. If it doesn't then i'd be checking wiring to pump/relays etc.

 

ill check that tomorrow hopefully it will get sorted ill let you no thanks for the advice
