I have recently rebuilt my x16xe engine.  After reinstalling the engine I managed to get it to start but it would not continue running.  Now it won't even fire up it cranks but won't start.  Anyone got any advice.

Are you getting fuel? (Check bleed valve) Also can you hear the pump prime?

Will look. Should fuel flow out if bleed valve depressed?

Thought so it doesn't. I'm thinking it could be immobiliser not allowing fuel in as I swapped it into a gsi. Anyway of getting around it

See if you can hear the pump prime when you turn the ignition on. Dont crank it tho. 
 
If you can there may be a blockage between pump and injector rail. If not the blue/red wire is for the fuel pump relay power, trace the wire for damage/immob cut into it
