Are you running the stock map sensor, or maybe check the idle adustment screw if it has one, vaccum line etc?

Im running the stock map but that shouldnt have anything to do with it... I tried adjusting the screw but to no avail and what do you mean vacuum lines??? I checked them but even if I had a vacuum leak it should still idle

what knid of tb is it, are you using the map sensor from the old tb or did the replacement tb have the map already installed,b/c you can never know if the person you bought it from may have dropped the tb and just passed it along.

The map sensor has alot to do with it. Did your new TB come with a map on it? If not then idk. But if it did i would try your old one and see what it does. Not throwing any codes right?

I put the old TB back on even and still nothing..... I have a feeling I might have flooded it or something... I get spark... and fuel... but when I took my plugs out it had fuel on it... so Im thinking that its got too much fuel for anything to spark.. hence the no idle but cranks deal... and how do I deal with it being flooded... thanks in advance.... Mike
