So, a stock motor should not need any adjustment on the MPS.
If it's running lean, it's either a vacuum leak or your timing is to advanced. You could also have issues with the TPS not being installed correctly and setup to be on the correct idle circuit when at idle. If the CHT is unplugged or that wiring is compromised, the car won't start. One thing to consider, and many of us have had to deal with this... The old brittle FI wiring harness will be darn near impossible to rule out until you test every circuit with an ohm meter. Pull off the main plug from the ECU and ohm out each wire..... These old wiring harnesses will give you all sorts of issues, and they change each time you do anything new. Just touching the harness to install things can create a break. Rich |
