Rotary beast reborn

YES! I finally got everything back together. As for that leak I mentioned on my other post, I found the cause. It was another broken oil metering line going to the injectors so I ended up buying two (50bucks) about 9.5 ft of vacuum hose (5-8 bucks) All new intake manifold gaskets (32 bucks) and some gasket remover. And I replaced all the spider vacuum lines so thats great too. For some reason it looks like I have an extra oil injector screw?? Its small then the rest. Well I turned the car on like 10 mins ago and it wouldnt start to well. (not surprised considering some chemicals mighta gotten in there and it hasnt been started in three days) When it did start it would turn back off fairly quickly but I could tell it was behaving more like when I first got the car (when it had a normal idle) I hope doing all this work fixed the idling problem. Id leave to NY on tues being perfectly happy If it doesnt id be almost outta ideas on what could be causing it other then changing the O2 sensor and fuel filter. Any thoughts or comments?

Yea so the point of this was to fix the idle and lack of power (probably caused by the vacuum leak from not using new gaskets when removed the ACV). After this im hoping the FC pulls like it did at its peak about a month ago. Pretty much like a two stroke engine hitting its sweet spot.
