Like the title says, I'm having an issue with my car after installing an ABS delete kit. My car turns over fine but will not ever start. The only thing that has changed is the delete kit. Hoping someone has some ideas while I'm tracing down the issue.

Also, I plugged the ABS unit back in to see if it was the issue but still couldn't get it to start. Everything in the car work, just never will fire off.
About to check out the ignition system.

That sounds like a good plan. After that, check for fuel. Odds are, you did something small and silly, like unplugged something you shouldn't have or pulled the wrong fuse.
 
^ditto maybe check MPI fuse first then go check for spark. But again, probably something thats so obvious and stupid that you just overlooked it.
 
EDIT: Meant to point out that all the fuses are good.

Turns out I'm not getting any spark. Almost positive it's because I unplugged something and didn't plug it back in. I've got three plugs against the firewall disconnected behind the intake manifold but couldn't find out where they go.

I have removed the emissions equipment and the cruise control so I'm sure one of the plugs is for the cruise, I can't remember if the emissions set up had any plugs or just vacuum lines.
Maybe someone could point me in the right direction. Here are pics of what I've got.

Thinking this one is the cruise control.

Not sure about these two though.

The purple one in my car is unpluged......what direction are the other two coming from?

This is where the big grey one goes. The big purple one is suppose to be unpluged. That just leaves the small purple one.

This are the ones that I have disconnected. I cant seem to find the smaller purple one.

The smaller purple one is in the bulk of wires going behind the intake manifold but comes out about where the proportion valve is. I cant seem to find the connection for the bigger grey plug but I'm sure it's buried somewhere underneath the battery tray. I had all of that out and I feel like it's just something simple like that. Too tired to mess with it tonight though.
Thanks for the help!
 
Got up this morning to see if I could find that plug, still no luck. I've followed down every wire in the bay.

Here are some pics of whats on the firewall near the fuel filter.
Can't believe something so simple is getting the best of me :ohdamn:

It seems your injector resistor pack is missing and that would be the grey connector :hmm: The small purple connector is for the egr if you have a california emissions car, so that one doesnt matter
 
Fixed! Apparently I forgot to reinstall the injector resistor pack. Feeling like a bit of an idiot for something so simple, but I thank you guys for the help.
