    idle issue after 19lb injector change

    hey guys i changed my injectors to a set off 19lb e36 items and when i started it it had a dead injector :S so i swapped in one off my old ones for time being while i get another injector sent to me. Now after that it idle great and ran pretty well but i forgor to fit the fpr line so i drove it for like half a day and i put the line back on this morning and its having idling problems like it starts runs for a few seconds then bogs out and stalls and if i rev it up for a few minutes it will just idle with the ac on. Im thinking that the ecu has learnt to deal with the lean fuel from having no vacuum on the fpr and now its running super rich from the fpr having vacuum again? would i be correct also ive had a look over the intake system and there is no obvious leaks and it was idling perfect before i stuck the fpr liine back on

    unplug the battery for 10 minutes to re-set the DME

            It is interesting that you guys get them to run at all on stock maps and 19pounders.
            I recently bought a car that started hard, idled badly in open loop, then died as closed loop switched in.
            It had Ford 19 pounders in it and a vacuum leak at the Evaporative canister.
            The plugs were dripping with fuel. The bore wash would be incredible.
            Since it will be road only, I junked the 19s and will use stockers.
