Just started my car for first time since rebuild. First off my oil pressure is good. It's at the O in Normal. It won't stay running unless I give it gas. I don't have all the exhaust on yet, just down tubes from the manifolds. I don't know if that would be a problem. I have about 19 in. hg of vacuum at idle when it does idle. It also feels hot but the temp gauge hasn't moved. I don't like not knowing the temp. The top radiator hose feels hot but the bottom hose is cool. Shouln't it be the other way around until the thermostat opens? This has me all nervous now. The gas is old, been sitting since Nov. There is so many things that could be wrong. I also here a whining noise about a second after I shut it off. Practically everthing is new on this engine. You name it, it's been replaced except various sensors, like IAC, TPS, water temp sensor. Please help.
