I dont mean to bash or anything but...WTF you messed up my (old) car already!!!! I put a lot of hours, worked on it everyday I didnt work and so much frustration into that car..lol...Be sure you have the right plugs plugged in the right ones. Always lable before you disconnect. Just hope that you didnt fry anything if you plugged the wrong ones in. If you need help just let me know...I'll come over and try my best to fix her up..I dont know if you still have my number but its 651 434 3656...anytime but saturday morning cause Im going fishing...


Come to think of it and how things are. Did you disconnect the battery before the dash swap? Check your voltage and see if you get enough power.

Its a auto to manual swap. I dont believe theres a clutch switch on it. Swap was done based off of Rotary Ressurection write up.
