Default Car has trouble starting.

Ok 95VX hatch, 92 b18a1, 94 ls ecu, skunk 2 mani. all else is stock.

Ok this is making me very mad. Every time i fix somthing, somthing else goes wrong. So here goes. The car starts on the first try. Then ill drive it around the block or til it gets warmed up then shut it off. When I try to start it again right after I shut it off it WILL NOT start. But if I let it sit for a couple hours it will start again with some pumps of the pedal.

My other problem is I cant rev ovr 3200 rpm's or it just sounds like a studder box and sits at 3200 rpm's.

No doubt you're runing in "limp" mode. Do you have a constant CEL while the car is running? You need to jump the service connector and see what codes it's throwing.

Yes sir. the check engine light is on all the time. When I jump the service conector the light stays solid and does not flash.

One problem is that I dont think I have the o2 sensor hooked up right.
