I have now sorted out the wiring and the starter motor turns on the key, fuel, pump runs but engine doesn't start. The car hasn't been running for 6 years. It fires using easy start. How can I check that fuel is getting to injectors? Stepper doesn't operate.

thanks Nick

Listen to them click when trying to start it.This does not prove them good but that the signal is getting there.More scientifically Google "noid light".Carefully disconnect the fuel line and see if it is pressurised.After six years the injectors could be stuck.Steve..

10 litres

Fuel definitely getting to the injectors? I'll pop off the feed to the fuel rail and put it in a tub, then prime and see if its coming out.
