PowerFC + My Rx-7 = nothing (looking for info about sensor check screen)

Which of the little "lights" should be lite up and which ones not. The car cranks and the powerfc apears to work. I can smell fuel and have spark but the engine wont run and the closest I got it was it starting for half a second and then dying and that only happened once. Since then nothing.

Any input or any thoughts would help
Chas


Background : rebuilt engine, single turbo, stock injectors (don't plan on getting near boost for the next 500 miles) and pretty much everything else is stock. All sensors are still in place.

Will it fire with the stock ECU?


The sensor check tells you if that sensor or feature is on or off. And displays current....

Haven't tried with the stock ecu but i don't think it will like that half the connections under the hood aren't there anymore. Now the powerfc did get it running for a brief second but it was short lived so I doubt the powerfc is bad.

Maybe flooded? Hold the accelerator to the floor and crank it a few times. If this doesn't work then pull a spark plug and see if it's covered in fuel or carboned up.
