Ok so I have a '89 240sx and im in the final stages of the swap. Engine from a 95 (obdI) and tranny are in, I got a s13 DOHC harness with ecu, manifold and throttle body and the distributor. (got the parts some off ebay and some off users here)

When I try to start the car I can hear the fuel pump priming, believe the throttle is opening but their is no spark.
car does have an 1/8 of gas in it, anybody thing that might be the problem?

I checked the fuses they are all good, I am kinda curious ,maybe I bought a bad dizzy so tomorrow gonna swap dizzys from a running 240 and see what happens

other than that
I am all outta ideas please lemme know what you guys thinkk

How do you know you have no spark? Did you pull a plug and ground it to the motor? Spark tester?
Do you have all the grounds hooked up?
Did you check the ecu for codes?
Do you have the correct s13 coil/ignition module?
Is the timing correct?
Is your dizzy getting/sending a signal?
is the coil bad?
Are the injectors firing?
Do you have the correct s13 ecu for the s13 harness?

There are soooooo many thinks that could be at play here. So your going to have to be way more specific on what you have done so far.

Thanks dude I will check all that stuff out
currently the clip on my ignition coil (93) I got doesn't work on my car but my harness is for a 93 so it doesnt, make sense. I look at the ignition coils for a 95 and the clip on them look just like the 93
