Okay I have a 93 vert with an rb20det swap..

Ran just fine for the month that I've had it. Been driven everyday with no significant problems at all. Then yesterday I decided that it would be wise to seafoam it.. Added a lil more then 1/3 of the can through the brake booster line.
Let it sit, started it let it run for about 5 mins took it around the block and parked it. Then came back about 30 mins later and it would start, idle for litterally one second, then die.. Tryed spraying starting fluid into tb and that helps it start but dies shortly after unless I pump the hell out of the throttle, then the second I stop, it dies

I've gone through everything,, fuel pump primes, injectors click, I'm getting spark (has the Buick grandnational coilpack), I've replaced my ignition relays, checked to see for some reason the fuel lines were backwards and they are not, checked all gounds and idk what else to try!

Someone help!!

My friend used that seafoam crapon his ka and blew a rod the next day. Do a compression test
