What car did the engine come from? Probably an immobiliser issue... :-\

you need the other "bits" to go with the engine, and change them to yours ... IIRC  its the immobilisor ring around the ignition key, the chip in the ignition key, and the ECU ...   someone who knows better will correct me I'm sure .. :)

If you're using your original key, then the 2.5 ECU should work :-\
