Default 1990 protege won't start

Hi. Ihave a 1990 Mazda Protege. It has a 1.8L SOHC engine. Recently we took the battery out to use in an older van temporarily (about 3 minutes). When we put the battery back into the car it would not start. It sounds like it is turning over but also sounds like there might not be gas going into the fuel injection. The car had been starting fine up until this point. Any help is greatly appreciated.

P.S. a relative of mine suggested pushing in some sort of emergency fuel release something or another(it was something close to that, can't quite remember) if such a thing exists in '90 Protege please let me know where it is located and how to use it. THANKS!!!

make sure that the cables are on tight on the battery that happened to one of our farm trucks
