Exclamation H22a swap problem

I just did a h22a swap in my 97 accord lx, i have it in and tryed to start it but it doesnt want to stay running, i dont why. Its getting fuel and spark and the timing im pretty sure is correct. It will start and will just shut right off, i dont know what is wrong, somebody help me please.

Just to check out a simple silly coincidence, try to start it then don't release the key completely. Just enough so the starter quits running, but still hold the key against the spring. Flaky ignition switch is not very rare...

did you get the ecu/wiring harness from the same car you got the engine out of? also, can you get it to rev up at all?

I tryed the ignition thing and it didnt work. And yes i sent both wiring harnesses off the hasport performance and i have the p13 ecu that came with the h22a. I tryed pushing on the gas and it just dies, and every now and then a check engine light will come on, and its for a code 4, which is the camshaft position sensor . Then i turn the ignition switch off and its fine, until it pops up again.
