b230f 2.4 sys. 1989 just put a 398 rebuilt head on it, and now this exists..

ok i got the thing running, idles lumpy and wont rev/backfires..

i checked tdc again all is well...dizzy is not 180 out either, flipped wires and checked it...

ok so i disconnected the AMM, and it ran better at idle, smooth as it should be. i think it went into limp mode because it got rich as can be...i plugged the amm back in while car was turned off and started, back to the old crappy runnings again. i took it off and looked to see how dirty it was, not really that bad looking, wires were all there, and the vane wasnt too bad either...had slight (and i mean slight) dirt on the vane...

but it wokred before i took the car apart for the head swap 3 weeks ago...wth is going on to me AAAAAA!!!! i need this car bad!!! holiday travles for the family, first time in 9 years to take the family home for xmas!!!!
