53 reg new engine wont start

1st post, (sorry to be begging for advise with the 1st post) i've gone through the forum and can't find anything relating to my problem.


Just fitted a recon engine in a 53 plate RX8. The rear engine/piston will not fire. It's had 4 new coil packs, 4 new plugs, still no good. Just tested the injector feeds and they appear to be missing on 3 & 4, there is signal on 1 & 2, although at 1 point the plugs did appear to be wet.

Any Ideas before i set fire to it?

Did you hook everything back the right way? Are the l2\t2 coils firing?

Any chance the fuel injection order is wrong?

No the order is fine. We've got no signal going to the injectors from the ecu
