Not sure what is wrong wont start
Alright i have a 1987 mazda rx-7 baseline as far as i know. I have been through the faxes and searched many posts. I did fix some issues i found in posts but still cant get it to start. I bought the car and the fuel lines busted and caught my engine bay on fire. Well i replaced all the wiring harnesses from my other rx-7 (it is a gxl) with a blown motor into this one. I replaced the starter,altenator, battery, oil cooler, most relays,Throttle body was replaced all the vaccume lines,and fuel injectors. I just recently found out why it wasnt sparking there was a ground i didnt connect under the intake. Well i still cant get it to start. My cas is good so are the coil packs. Ive tried 3 ECU's they all do the same thing so im guessing they are all good. My Air flow meter tests in OHM range also replaced it too though. I did notice my shift up light is permantly on. And there is a buzzer goin off but i think that is cause i replaced my oil pressure sensor with a manual gauge one cause it got burnt up in the fire. My seat belt light wont turn off but i noticed it does when i turn on my headlights. I just have no clue where to start now. Any advice would help.

Also forgot to mention my blinkers/hazards randomly turn on and off... I'm thinking my primary injectors aren't working right. Ive read some on how to check them but I still have a electrical problem somewhere i think just not sure where. By the way I've turned my CAS and I don't really hear the injectors primary or secondary(with the key in the on position)

Good new and bad news. Good news first. So i got it running. It needed different fuel injectors and messed with the timing. Bad news. Because I started it so much with no real fire some well alot of fuel was in the exhaust. I wasn't thinking about moving it forward yet because I was so excited it started. Well there was 3 mattresses and some other cloth stuff next to the mufflers and they were leaning on my garage wall which i might add is old and wooden thank god in the backyard. It caught the mattress on fire when i backfired a huge flame that ive never seen happen before cause as i stated alot of fuel was in the exhaust shot out. The fire department got to ny house in about 5 mins. In 5 mins my whole garage both my rx-7's and about $20000 worth of other stuff stored in my garage burnt down I don't post here much but just thought i might let peeps know don't work on a car with the exhaust pointed into the garage
