Talking It runs

Good news everyone.After many hours my tII engine swap finally started. I haven't drove it yet, it's not ready for that. But I let it idle. It wants to die though. It is really spurtery and dies after a few seconds if I don't give it some gas. Any ideas?

there was one line that needed replaced that I found so far, but didn't make the difference when I fixed that. All other vacuum lines appear to be okay. Any more ideas. I'll spray the engine with some wd40 and check to see if it clears the sputtering up momentarilly. I'm so excited. Can't wait to drive my right hand drive rx7.

The gas is old, and only has a little in there. I'm going to try better gas. and replace the fuel pump strainer and fuel filter. I don't think any of those will solve my probem. I'm also thinking of checking all my ground wires, and maybe adding some where I might need a better connection. Everything has been sitting a while maybe the injectors are gummed up. Any body think any of this might solve the sputtereing problem.
