Default car won't start...

heres the deal...it cranks perfectly...just won't start. i just tried to wire my secondary o2 so i am assuming it has something to do with that. is there some 'special' kind of wire i am supposed to use? i used 22 gauge from radio shack...nothing special. followed the instuctions to the T...where should i start? oh yeah...00 b16 in an 00 cx hatch in case it matters. thanks for ANY help you can give...i am currently stuck at the place i a working on it...WTF.

You're car will start even if the O2 isn't wired up. you'll just get a CEL.

did you check for spark? Fuel? compression?

alright...now i'm getting somewhere. the fuse in the engine bay for the fuel(injection) was blown. replaced it with a new 15 and it blew again immediately. WTF...why would it do that?

why would everything be alright right? i'm really beginning to LOVE this whole swap thing. so it DOES run but not right. 1.) it is idling high...about 1-1100. i thought that was pretty high. 2.) it does this wierd surge thing when the rpms get low...like right before i push the clutch in before i come to a stop...or even downshift for that matter. i haven't checked the cel yet because i am exhausted...tomorrows another day...WTF. any ideas?

alright...here are the codes :

67 : is this due to the fact that i am running a high flow cat?

10 : not at all sure where this came from...never had a problem before with this. can this be causing the high idle?
