Are you SURE there are no air leaks in the AFM piping and etc?
Have you managed to get the engine warm yet?
Have you checked the timing since you got it started, have you checked it properly?
it shouldn't just "die" below 2000rpm unless there is a major vacuum leak or other big issue.

i think that i found the problem is that a lead coil is bad...

can anyone find the ohm's for a leading coil where you plug in the plugs, on the coil. not the little bolts, i cant find it in my FSM.


THANKS A MILLION GUYS!!!!!
