ITR Intake Manifold help!! What did I mess up?
So I just bought an ITR intake manifold for my poormans type r swap. This is in my 1993 CX hatch. Before I had an OBD2 Si intake mani. I had never done an intake manifold but it really didn't look hard so I got to work on it. I didn't run into much trouble doing the install but now that everything is bolted up and sensors plugged in I'm having some trouble.
First I started the car and it would maybe stay on for a few seconds then it would just die. After about three tries of that it threw a code 14 (IAC (EACV) - idle air control valve ) I was awesome enough to forget to plug it back in
So I plugged it back in and tried again. Now the car starts and stays on but idle is REALLY rough and when you give it any gas idle drops really low then stalls. It also smells exceptionally bad. Like its burning to much fuel or something.
I'm thinking about the only options for this problem would be some vacuum line or a sensor that I messed up somehow. But if anyone has had the same thing happen or perhaps knows which sensor or vacuum line might do this that would be EXTREMELY helpful!
Thanks in advance!
P.S. If my description is too vague or pictures are needed just let me know. I'll post 'em.

Are you sure that the MAP and TPS connectors aren't switched around? That may be the cause.</TD></TR></TABLE>LOL! I love how you started that post! It's like teaching a child not to do something really stupid.
Let me go check.
