getting frustrated

hey, im the guy who did the swap, car ran fine before i put it in the garage, and now it won't rev past 3000 rpms, and idles like a huge piece of crap, wants to die, no power, gas smelling smoke, new engine, blah blah,

i have no idea what to do, i have read about every post on this website, cant take it anymore, i have never picked up a fuel pressure gauge, voltmeter, or compression gauge, how and where do hook the fuel pressure gauge, some info please on the voltmeter, as to where to set the voltmeter, and how to test the car, relays, and hanress's, and ecu, and such, and what ohm readings i should get from certain harness's, thats about it, im going to take a baseball bat to my car now, so please write back soon, and be patient with me, i know i could search for a lot of this, but ive just about had it with searching,

thanks

don't take a baseball bat to it...yet, which "swap" do we speak of? The compression guage should go into one of the spark plug holes and check it that way. Did you do the check engine light codes? Not sure about voltmeter and I have an idea about the fuel pressure guage but I don't want to mess you up if I'm wrong. Hope that might help a little and give us some feedback

Thanks

Jack
