mk2 16v wont fire

[Benrevs]

I have fuel and i have spark. I have fitted an ecu relay in number 3 as it was empty (is it meant to have one)? The car was not running when i bought it but the engine has been rebuilt.   what's next, timing?!

[Benrevs]

Hazards are on the steering column, so ce2?

if there is fuel n spark then timing. and then check for compression too if rebuilt & a non runner

no need for relay 3

Ok, I wasn't sure so I stuck one in there anyway.   I have only ever owned Digi's so this is fairly new to me.
  I will check the timing next then, anything in particular I should know about their set up? Cheers

Nah nothing special, just check timing marks all align.

Does the isv buzz (if you feel it) when ignition is on? Does it even attempt to fire? Or is it just cranking?

Check rotor arm, and leads on dizzy cap are correct order also.

Yea isv is fine, i swapped the cap and arm for another.. No change.  Gunna check the hall sender tomorrow and change the leads i think.

[Benrevs]

Not even a mutter while cranking.
