    Loss of power...

    Here's the situation...

    I changed my clutch and apparently and unconsciously screwed something else up.

    It takes me 10+ times to crank with all power and when i finally do i idle at 1500 rpm's

    I have new wires, sparkys, dizzy cap, rotor button, and i have checked my fuel injectors..

    I was told to check my vacuum lines, in which he said you can spray some carbonator cleaner on the line and if the rpms surge then you know you have a crack or leak son that line.. any other tips or procedures i may need to take on tomorrows adventure to fix my car??

      Yea i double checked that yesterday and they are connected properly... When they were connected wrong the car wouldnt start at all... I checked for a vacuum leak with carb cleaner and no high rev, assuming that there is no leak but just incase im going to replace all my vacuum lines and fuel lines in the engine bay... my AFM is working correctly as well... i checked my ICV, it is turned as tight as it will go and wont go any lower but that wasn't messed with before so why would it start now.... but still an option...

      sooo confused..

        You can go to your local shop and ask for a smoke test. Best way to tell.

          Any idea on how much they charge for that... I think that would be way more accurate anyway. And I live in Cobb county, I'm familiar with almost all of Atl though, i see you live in Atl, any recommendations?
