to add to the line remark ^ after cranking for oil, put the fuse back in and turn the key on without cranking so that the pump gets power and check those fuel connections for leaks, other than that if you did a good job it should start maybe a little bit of smoke after a while its good to go. I just finished replacing my motor a couple weeks ago after blowing the last one. oh yea turn the heater on so the coolant will begin to circulate through the whole system.

^^Good point on the addons. I didn't have to do the heater because I smashed my heater inlet hose.

this should be good, although after you plug the EFI fuse back in turn the key to the ON position about 7-9 times to ensure that sufficient fuel pressure is built up. After that cross your fingers and start the car
