97 accord motor swap not running right
I "acquired" a descent deal 97 accord someond swapped a h22 out of a 94 or 95 this car has tons of extras which make the deal nice but I can't get it running right.
runs great at idle new premium gas new plugs wires the computer has the wiring harness adapter to the old computer I have no clue where to even start. It has the check engine on but no one around here can check it. It has the OBDII connection with OBDI computer. SO? I tried playing with stuff but can't figure it out. It definetely runs better when warm almost drivable but way under powered. no smoke just stumbles cuts out real bad especially when cold. everything appears to be hooked up right but I am lost. And sadly this is my first honda project. Not gonna lie I have built tons of chevs and even a turbo diesel so I am mechanically inclined but this one has got me confused. I would love to get it going but may end up selling it as a whole or parting it out.

honestly l wouldnt sell it but if u do hit me up 1st l would like some of the extras u have. u should be able to hook up a scanner and check the codes it throwing. try and find the codes 1st and go from there. besides that check vac lines,egr valve, all hose hook ups sounds like something is loose or not connected right. also check accord h22 swap guides and run through the info and see if its all done and connected the way the guides say.
