Scott et all - 20v'er gruppe,

A local friend of mine, Pete Flagg (Autohaus) has transplanted a 20v'er 3B
into a 1990 Coupe quattro. He has everything hooked up correctly and is NOT
getting any spark. My very first comment was, "Pete, did you double check
the timing of the distributor"? He said yes, but I still think that might be
it. He told me that as soon as he turns the starter over the injectors loose
power and the power from the ECU to the ignition is null.  Any BTDTs on
this? Where should we start? He has double checked all PIN outs on the ECU
with sensors and everything is fine. Even the VAG 1552 gives us an ok.
Except, Pete said that it kicked back a code for the cam sensor. That might
be it? He did say he installed a brand new cam sensor though, and new knock
sensors. BTDTs would be mucho helpful.

Where should we start with this? 3B needs help.
