Okay, i just talked to nzconvertible last night about the front mount set up that i had the intercooler piping fabbed. Anyway, all the connections are tight, and i have the air bypass solenoid valve taken off, and the resulting empty nipple plugged off. Now, i have the air supply valve is still there, and i have the nipple routed to the Greddy type-s bov connected to the cold pipe. Now, it DID start last night, but it didnt idle. but last night, we didnt have the asv connected to the cold pipe. so, i get home, "sweet, thats the problem." So, i connect it up, and it started one time...held the idle by my foot at about 2k rpm. now, it doesnt even start. Engine cranks over @250rpm, Starts for an instant @1000rpm, then dies immediately....no matter how i play with the gas. also, already pulled the plugs, and cleaned the **** out of them with brake cleaner. Still, nothing. I know its getting fuel, because i can smell gas after trying to start it...its not really bad, but its there. I checked the the asv, read ohm @25.5 or some thing. the haynes states 23.5ohms max. so, i figure thats probly okay. beyond this, i have no idea what the hell is going on.

Ryan Shannon.

Yeah does sound like the AFM is unplugged.

I've done it numerous times.
It will start up and then conk out because the AFM turns the rfuel pump on for a split second.

I agree. First thing to mind was MAF not plugged in.
