I have a 1983 633csi not running, i have done a wire harness and computer swap to the 059 computer, computer is has power main relay is working same with fuel pump relay, the harness came off a running car, i have tried switching the reference sensor connections to make sure there not mixed up, all fuses are good, new front TDC sensor even though its only for diagnostic purposes. The car turns over and every thing, I have fuel but still no spark. The reference sensors also have resistance. So now im stuck at this point, does any one have any suggestions on where to go from here, all input will be greatly appreciated.

It is better to go to the body shop and get it diagnosed.
