Default No Fuel Flow after ZC Swap

I have completed the ZC swap into my 91 CRX SI. I'm getting spark but no fuel. My fuel pump was working fine before the swap. I know my fuel pump just didn't go bad all of a sudden. Everything seems wired correctly. I wired the distributor and crank sensors correctly. Everything seems to plug in whre it was suppose to. Is there something that I'm missing?

Please Help

Do you hear the fuel pump kick on?

There is no such thing as "I know my _________ didnt go bad all of a sudden"

Honda year 1991 is KNOWN to have main fuel relay issues. Although unlikely you may want to check to be sure.

Sounds like something simple, don't assume you wired everything correctly, go back and check everything and then check it again. I'll second the main relay problems, but I'm willing to bet it's the wiring of the relay, not the relay itself.

isn't the relay just plugged in? All I had rewired was the distributor. if there was something else to get rewired it wasn't done.

Thanks to all of the suggestions I found that it was the ground wire that connects to the thermostat. But now I can't get any fire. Are all swaps this difficult. I just want to get this thing started. I'm tired of not being able to drive my car.

Thanks for all of your help
