Did you run the ECU in Diag Mode???? Check your AF Meter. My VLT Didnt start after the AF died

Just make sure you've plugged everything back in the right way! And check your sensors - is there anything from your original engine that you changed over when you swapped them? AFM, CAS, AAC, TPS, ECU? One of them might be shagged.
