I assume you checked the basics already, but to be sure, did you check for spark and is the fuel pump running for one second when you turn on the ignition switch? Also, since the Engine Computer was unplugged, whatever is in there now needs to relearn "minimum throttle" before it will know when it has to be in control of idle speed. Until that is done you may need to hold the accelerator pedal down 1/4" to get the engine to start and to keep it running.
