hey bro! Yah, I got another engine for my car as well (the old one had a huge coolant leak, low comp, stuck 6pt, and 144,000miles.) I also got the haynes.

One problem about the starter fluid: I painted my intake manifolds. I did howevver replace all the gaskets with new ones from Atkins (Rotary Resurrection hook up) new vaccum hoses, removed emissions, completely removed the 6pt sleeves and actuators( jb welded holes shut)

I think that one possibility is that I may have blown off a vaccum hose or two under the lim when it backfired really bad a couple of times.

I'm gonna dissasemble my intake manifold, ziptie all the lines, check eveything again, and rewrap my harness(did a TERRIBLE job the first time) put it all back together with a new TPS, check some more stuff, and then see what happens. If I still cant get it to idle and rev properly, I will call Banzai Racing to schedule an appointment.
