Default Intake Swap...No fuel

I just finished my intake manifold swap. (97 dx with a 98 ex mani) I ran into some trouble first when i put a coolant line in one of the vacum nipples but now i have another. The car will start and idle fine but when i try to give it some gas it just boggs down. Its definatly not getting enough fuel. I am using the y7 fuel rail, injectors, fuel pressure regulater and throttle body of the old y7 mani.

So....y7 with y8 intake mani not getting enough fuel....anyone know how to fix???????

Maybe you have the starts of hydrolock if you sucked coolant into the engine...

Pull the spark plugs and see if there is any water in there.

Are your Map and TPS sensor correct???
There should be no fuel issues with that simple swap, however the above will make it seem like it!

agreed, if sucked ANY coolant into the engine, that's bad news. If not I would have to say it sounds like a faulty TPS, at least from what you have described.

If your TPS was working before, it is unlikely that. Re-check your TPS and Map sensor. Map is on the same engine sub-harness as the IAT
