Is your timing right? Do you have the right ECU? need more info on the swap and anything else you might have done.

the ecu is a po6 im thinking the timming belt streached or something i just replaced the spark plugs,wires,oil,filter and the fuel filter. the car came with the swap and was running fine until a few days ago. its bone stock just intake and some ebay headers.

p06, isn't that a single cam d-series ECU? if it isn't chipped I would suggest at least a p75 or pr4 OBD1 ECU. Is the distributor ok? You might have a bad dizzy.

yeah i thought of that too..yeah the ecu is chipped for the motor. i have a stock p75 i can try. im gonna take a look at the timming belt and then try one of my buddies dizzy. i had a similar problem with my h22a but it was the timming belt got losed and took a dump due to the auto tentioner....but the car never died on me it would just be super slugish
