Misfires/ stalling issues, new plugs,wires, cap,rotor, etc. Options

[batcavee00]

Sup guys, I just rebuilt my block, but I can't get it to run right....it starts n runs, but runs nasty n it stalls.i changed plugs, wires,cap, rotor, fuel filter, etc. with no luck.....i got a 94 gt manual trans. Plugs are gapped to .044. I dont think it's an injector issue, im running the stock ones. I also tried running some rx7 ones,but it still misfires. If I let the gas pedal go it stalls. Messing with the timing doesnt help eirher.I tried looking for vaccum leaks by spraying starting fluid around the intake n manifold areas, but the car runs the same...any ideas what it could be?

if you have a timing light use that to check you are at 10* BTDC

make sure to bridge E1 and TE1




on a side note the only time i set timing like that is with the engine out of the car.

when its in the car i use that method to get close but im usually off, so i start it up, revv to redline.

if its smooth all the way to redline, u got it right.

if it struggles at low rpm but zipps up quickly once you get into higher rpms, or
if it revv fine at low rpm but stalls and wont go to a higher rpm (usually 4000) and feels like a soft revv limit (imagine going uphill in 5th but u cant accelerate anymore due to too much load, even tho ur WOT)

i move the timimng one tooth forward and try again. if its worse, move it 2 teeth back

HINT: if your valve timing is off, it will be difficult, if not impossible, to set your ignition timing properly... plus its pretty pointless lol
