^^^^

maybe it's attracted to V8's!!!!!!!!!

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!



on a serious note: What's the problem you're having? Running gay isn't the best way to describe how a car runs. Go pick up a dictionary and learn some descriptive words THEN come back with a decent, logical post. Please don't waste your next post being all pissy. Just get to the description and see where you fucked up.

You could say "My car is running kinda goofy" or "My car is actin' a fool." I'll probably beat the dead horse even further, but get a Hayne's manual man! It's like $15 and it will walk you through all of the steps to checking everything. I highly, highly recommend it. Also, you MAY get a little bit better response posting in the Regional forums, they tend to stay busy. Someone may see your post and come to the aid of their fellow rotary owner.

so you DID set the TPS correctly? Timing is perfect? You plugged everything in?

what did you do? I did a TII swap and I can tell you what I did, how I did it and where I fucked up.

Sounds like you need to take a week or two so you can Dowload and read the FSM. You're supposed to do THAT before doing anything for THESE reasons.

you have a lot of work ahead of you but i think you're better off going to the REGION Specific section for locals to come give you a hand.

have you already double and tripled checked your work?

check the link above and you'll find the FSM, just read it and soon you'll be doing your own work and you won't have to rely on anyone.
