Running and Idling! Swap almost done, My 3s swap is almost done! Options

[jcbass7]

After a couple of months of issues, the 3SGTE in my black hatch is finally running.. well let me put it this way, it starts on command now!

But here are my new set of concerns/issues...

she runs really rough at idle and stalls pretty quickly..

however, if i hold the pedal to about 1200 or above then i can get her to idle and stay relativly smooth.


ps:(no exhaust is hooked up at the moment, just downpipe and thats it)


any ideas anyone?


Edit: Update she runs and idles now! more down below

my car did the same thing when i had a huge vac leak, there are 2 nipples on the back of the intake manifold, since i did not pull my motor from a clip i just had the motor, i did not notice these back 2 nipples, one was plugged, and one was open, this caused my car not to idle at all, i had to keep on the gas to keep it running, and it sounded terrible while running, so id look around for a big vac leak.
