Ok have a little issue i'm getting fed up with
I finnished my headgasket swap awhile ago, and fired the car up, it help 10-12" of vaccum. But I had the firing order wrong so I switched it back to how its supposed to be. Now the boost gauge reads 0 at idle, idles like its on 5 cyl or has one hell of a cam, like a plug wire is unplugged. It also sits around 500 rpms, it will idle without touching the throttle after its been started and died twice. It has brand new taylor wires and brand new autolite plugs in it. All the ic tubes are sealed good, and all the vaccum connections on the plenum have are sealed with hose clamps.Its only exhaust at the current moment is ported manifolds. Any ideas? Any and all help is much appreciated, I have until early August to get this car running good, thanks n advance, Justin
edit- I havent run codes yet, but theres no check engline light, and after every time I run it, I have to unplug the battery(its not mine and I dont want to risk killing it so I stick it back in my brothers car and drive around with it to charge it back up)
