My car sucks. I need lots of help.
ok so today i get my 4 brand new injectors, put them in, plug everything back in and i notice coolant is shooting out of a ripped hose. i fixed that hose and now no coolant shoots i filled it up a little. now the real problem is my car wont idle at all if i give it gas and keep it near 2500rpm it doesnt stall anything under and it will stall, it sounds really really shitty i dont know how to explain its sound but it really doesnt sound good, sort of like sputtering. i tried to drive it just to get it home and i cant go faster than 10mph even redlining it in 1st im going 10mph. all the hoses and wires are hooked up correctly to my knowledge. i am thinking maybe i have to adjust the throttle position sensor but im new to cars and rotarys so i dont even know where that is or how to adjust it. any help will be appreciated because this is my daily driver and i need it to get to work.

when you put in the injectors, did they seat right? the high idle could be due to an air leak around the injectors

the secondaries clicked in place and went in perfect, the primaries didnt click at all they just sat there and were kind of wobbly but the fuel rail still bolted down correctly so i assumed that was fine. even now that everything is back in place i can still sort of move them and spin them with my hands. can this be my problem? its defiantly not my tranny because before i started this my car idled, drove and ran perfect exept for the stumbling from dirty and wrong injectors.

i was thinking it may be something along the lines of fouled plugs or something, fuel filter is brand new replaced last week, wires are new 7mm wires. injectors are OEM. im going to try and get new coil packs.

on s4 na,
there is a spacer for the primary rail,
but no spacer for the secondaries.
For injector info,
