Intake manifold swap help!
Hey guys, so.... we done screwed up lol. Last night I was rushing to swap the intake manifold. Pulled the one off my 0bd1 b18b1 that was last run... pfft, maybe 4 years ago. Slapped it on my obd2 b18b1. Now a fun fact is that this motor is in a 96 civic and so there is also a jumper harness and a... p72(?) ecu. I forget. Anyway, did not search if there was a fuel injection plug order, did not Mark and plugs like an idiot. Wel I plugged everything back up to the best of my ability but now it runs, idles rather, but u push the accelerator and the thing bogs down and shuts off. Any ideas? Bad wiring? Bad sensor? Bad firing order? I kept trying to switch injection plug order and it really did not make much of a difference. And the.... I think 4 plugs or 5 I am ALMOST certain are connected to the correct outlet/sensor whatever. Any help would be appreciated.
update::: So I toyed with exchanging a few sensors with my old ones. My IACV is filthy from both intakes but I cleaned it, double checked all connections. Now it simply bogs down when you go to accelerate but doesn’t actually cut off. I was able to rev it up and move it to a better parking spot with relative ease. Any ideas or advice from here? This all started because fuel was not reaching #1. Only #1 New injector installed. Wondering if maybe the problem was not simply the injector and now the problem has been exacerbated? 🤷🏼♀️ Stumped. Yes plugs wires distributor and timing also all done, Valve cover gasket too. Map and throttle position sensor are brand new. Just so all info is out there for the masses.

The order for the fuel injector clips, based on the ground wire color, starting at the cam gear end is: (1) Brown, (2) Red, (3) Lt. Blue, and (4) Yellow.
