Default REALLY Slow Starts, Misfiring Idle - Whats The Problem

Ive got an obdo b16 in my car, ran good other than the misfire before I swapped the clutch.

If the car has been sitting for 3+ hours and completely cools down, the thing will take 5-7 seconds to start, it cranks real easy and its turning over and getting great power from the starter but just wont kick, then when it does, its not instant, it takes a second.

If the car is cold and started up there is also a very audible misfire, the engine stumbles if you try and push the gas and ESPECIALLY if you try and drive it.

2 minutes of driving and the cars mint.

1 problem I know of for sure, is I spotted to uncoonected wires, its a solid green wire with a female connector and a yellow white with a male connector, there over by the intake by the wires are pretty long I dont remember where they came from. Are thye possibly on the back of the block?

For my misfire, when I bought the car, I changed the plugs oil and air filter thats it, the misfire kinda gradually came on and now its just pissing me off. Could it be my rotor in the dizzy possibly? Suggestions?

Thanks guys
