I have to ask, what emissions in their entirety did you take out during the course of the swap and did you plug anything that was not used? Also, did you replace the fuel filter, ensure that none of the fuel lines got bent, accidentally replace the gas line crossed over to the vent line back to the gas tank?

i just took out the EGR tube.... and placed nickles in the open holes where the tube went.... i took it out cause i broke it... thats the only emissions i took out.. i know for sure i didnt bend any fuel lines... i have a extra fuel filter.. but should that make all the difference? i dunno.. ill try.. i got to.... just one question... should the fuel filter line go to the hard line infront of the car? or the straight one twars the firewall part of the car.. maby i got them backwards... other than that... it will start when i give it gas... but run really really rough... no smoke coming out of the exhaust... when i let go of the gas.. it dies... could it be bad timing?

Could be leaky or blown head gasket.
