Anyone have 4age/ae86 experience?, Got some problems... Options

[Delta_Phoenix]

I'm working on an '86 ae86 and I'm having some trouble getting it to run. It'll start but after about 10 sec. it just dies. Planning on buying it IF I can get it to run. Looking for some advice. I'll add details if I get some responses.

The only evidence I've seen that this is a swap is that there are a couple plugs (one on each fender well) that aren't plugged into anything at all.

Check to see if one of thouse connections is missing from the intake manifold. I know alot of AE owners get rid of T-VIS as one of their first mods. IF you friend just happened to disconnect the plug instead of actually removing it properly, that could be why its dying on you.

Also you checked cap/rotor/coil??

Plugs are a good thing to change, quick and easy, but you might also be just not gettin enough of a spark because of your cap and rotor aswell. Pull em off and check the contacts on the cap, and the point on the rotor and see if its clean or rusty. Also, maybe go out and spend $30 on a cheap MSD coil
