105237, Ok I can't get this car started...PLease advice and help needed.

Ok guys,
As some of you may have seen in a few posts, I bought a non running ESi with a new motor in it. Well I was told by the kid it ran fine when he picked it up and now it doesn't start...

This is what's happening and what I have checked list..

Checked...
Cam sensor (no voltage)
Crank Sensor (no voltage)
Firewall relays
all fuses and relays under hood and dash
Checked the coil pack and there is no signal
Fuel pump does not prime

The only thing I can think of is that its the ECU.

Can anyone tell me anything else to check, I'm running out of ideas and the junk yards around here won't refund my money if it's not the problem.

If ASD relay you mean the one on the firewall then yes.

I agree on the ECU. Mine did the exact same thing before I changed it this last time.
