Answer
Robert: Hello. Sounds like your computer is the problem. You need to get your car coded and AutoZone would do that for free. But no way to get the car there. So use your repair manual and get a voltmeter. Start with the battery and work yourself through the engine till you find what is keeping the engine from getting power. But then wait a minute, how old is your battery and it's cables? Are you sure they are tight? These little cars like to have the cables on the battery tight. So check that. But then if that does not fix it then it it most likely your computer. You have to get the right computer to go with the engine that you just put into the car. Other wise the computer and the engine does not go together. I hope this helps and good luck!
