Unhappy Auto to Manual Electrical Problems (Not Neutral Switch)

After running a wire from the starter solenoid through the firewall to the black wire w/red stripe going to the ignition switch, leaving the other end of that wire capped off, The starter will engage but the engine won’t fire over. I don’t know if I have any spark because I’m alone. Can’t turn the key and watch under the hood at the same time.

I’m pretty sure it’s a fuel problem because I can’t smell gas in the exhaust.

The problem stems from me crossing the wrong wires last night trying to get the neutral switch bypassed.

Any idea on what I might have screwed up?

Here is a Pic to help.

you can check for spark with one person...
hook up a timing light and aim the thing in your face

I didn't do the swap out so I'm not sure what's left to be done.

I've been searching and reading over the auto to manual write up and I think that the plug for the throttle bdy is not there. I've looked at the throttle body for a missing hose or an open vacume port but nothing.

The auto computer also seems to be out. It must be because I can't find. Is it next to the ECU or what?

Can someone link to me which 'writeup' you guys are talking about. The Rotary Resurection writeup does not mention any electrical stuff. Im pretty much ready for the swap as far as parts goes but have no idea what I need to do wiring wise.

Thanks.
