Engine will start but not idle (electrical issue)
OK, I have a B18 swap in my car (bought it this way) and had a fuse blow for my headlights over the weekend. It took me a while to figure out it was the fuse, so I was looking at wiring connections trying to trace it down. After replacing the fuse I went to go drive it today and it will crank and start, but wont run unless I move the throttle to keep it running. It ran fine with the fuse blown before, so I assume these are two totally separate issues. My assumption is while I was searching for the light issue I must of knocked a wire lose or something. Can you give me some things to look at? I can hear the fuel pump turn on when I key the car on. Keep in mind this was an engine swap, so the wiring is a mess and I was fooling with wires around the engine controller. Thanks for you help.
whats an engine controller? ecu? check ALL off your fuses, especialy the ones under the hood, the 7.5 back up fuse and ecu fuse.
