Hi and thanks for using 2carpros.com

First, I have to say this vehicle isn't offered in the US, so I don't have specific technical information related to it. However, I am going to try to help.

First, have you checked the basics such as fuses and the fuel pump relay? Since the engine was out, recheck grounds which may have been disconnected or damaged also.

Here are a few links that may be helpful:

If the fuel pump wasn't a problem prior to the engine repair, it most likely a ground issue. Check for those issues and let me know what you find,
