Default stalling question

I installed my new lt's and put new wires(msd) and plugs(ngk) at the same time. I fired it up after I was done and it wowed me no hesitation you could feal the power the car rocked back and forth it was nice. I let it run for about 10 minutes because the neighbor came over after he heard me fire it up. I did not take it out of the garage because it was late. the next day I fired it up and after it warmed up (about 2 miniutes) it idals funy and dies, if i try to give it gas it dies any advise??

well if you have not driven the car in a long time you could have got some condensation in the fuel lines. i am not sure if its cold enough for that yet tho. I mean how often do you drive the thing ?

I would go back and make sure all the wire and plugs, and coil packs are in nice and secure. that seems to be a common problem

Also, when you add LT's, the A/F changes a tad.. SO, it might need to "re-learn"..

make sure you hear 2 clicks when checking the wires.
