Default somebody please help me...!=(

i really need some help..

I have a 94 eg hatch and swapped a 94 GSR.

Well, today i was getting ready to start up my car, so i checked all the connections all the vacuums and all the wirings.

then i start my car, it starts up but it won't idle. everytime i crank the engine up is just dies out right away i don't know why.

i know for sure that i got spark, fuel, air, and compression.

so can someone please help me out with my problem?!?!

thanks in advance

when you get it started.. open the radiator cap and turn on the heat to the highest setting and start the car then let it run until the fan turns on and if the level of the coolant goes down add some more.. it should get most of the bubbles out.

You will need to get the car to idle first if you are to properly bleed the cooling system. Here's a few pointers on how it's done.

1. Remove radiator cap.
2. Start the car.
3. Put the heat on full blast.
4. Let it reach operating temp, and wait for the radiator fan to come on.
5. Add coolant as necessary.

Yes, they are the same.

Check:
-all your vaccum hoses
-timing (cam and ignition)

yes im happy i got mah car running. I went for a test drive and man im so geeked bout how this little thing move, its freakin fast..

but the only problem is everytime i would start it i have to step on the gas for at least 5 to 8 seconds. then it would fire right up..

i put the timing on 15 degree and seems like the distributor position is all the way advance i dont know if my timing is right.

can someone tell me please
