Default h22 swap gone bad

ok.. swap was completed.. running awesome...then it started stalling at idle.. sometimes it would idle and sometimes it would die.. when it was cold, it idled awesome.. when the intake manifold was installed, the nuts werent torqued all the way and 3 or 4 fell off... i tightened and reinstalled all the nuts and it ran a lil better..

it still stalls out tho.. i used one of those shitty paper gaskets.. i guess theres a good chance that it failed... does this sound right?? it does the ole rev up and down sometimes too... so that also leads me to think gasket is fucked...

hook it up with some input guys

get some brake or carb cleaner and spray it around the intake mani and when the engine revs up or bogs a little you found where the leak is...this is what i do
