Subject:No injector pulse 81 AFC vanagon

Hello,

Did engine swap and am puzzled.......Used same FI that motor had on it, and
can turn it over, runs a few seconds then dies............used a noid light,
and no pulse to injectors, but apparently cold start is firing.  Car ran
fine until engine seized..........thus replaced motor.

No injector Pulse:

* Checked and cleaned all grounds to FI harness.
* Verified engine ground
* Changed ECU with known good one
* Changed ECU with another known good one * *Changed resistor pack (yellow
bus)
* Changed double relay with known good one * *Changed AFM with known good
one

Vehicle still starts and stalls. I couldn't verify FI Pulse after first time
because I was alone  but there was no change.

I seem to remember this happenning on another car of mine a couple years ago
and it was simple.but I can't remember what i am missing!
