sr redtop issues?

[jbretz]

so i recently finished my redtop swap in my s13. i dont drive the car much but when i do im having some issues. when i come to a stop the idle drops real low. it doesnt shut off but the idle is real low. ive checked all my couplers,replaced maf due to faulty original,also replaced maf harness with new connector n clips.

another ? i have is on cold starts the car takes awhile to fire up. it will crank but no fire. would the car still run n start if the fuel lines are flipped from the regulator to the filter?

Proper set basetiming?

[jbretz]

i havent checked timing yet. but i just recently adjusted timing on this motor when my buddy had it. right before he sold it to me.

once i get it in the garage and actually get a chance to check it out, im gonna go over everything again.

also im running this in a 89 coupe and for some reason my tach or coolant gauge wont work. ive already swapped the clusters for a dohc prior to swap.

Are you letting the fuel pump finish before starting all the way? And what was wrong with the maf?BTW man I'm selling those rays if your interested .

[jbretz]

i think i narrowed it down to a bad signal coming from the coolant temp sensor to the ecu. havent got a chance to get the car in the garage and rip it apart yet. im hoping its something simple cause this issue is annoying.
