Check for Vaccum leaks. Did you have any mods added to the new set up? If so you may have to get the car tuned.

Make sure they are both plugged in. The maf on your car has an adaptor harness, make sure its not damaged and is plugged in. Any issues call me.

ok guys looking for some help me and my turner are getting into it. And I cant find any answers anywhere! I jut did a motor build and he tuned my car before everything went fine I ended up having to replace the pcm and alternator. So he retuned it and it is idleing around 1800 to 2000 and then it calms down then start idleing high again. Any suggestions on what it could be? i also am having a misfire?
