Smooth idle then just dies..
Hi there every one on the board. I have recently placed a 305 TPI engine into my car. i wired it with a painless harness.
The car starts up on occasion when it is cold and runs exceptionally rich.. I replaced the Throtle position sensor and IAC..
The problem I am now having is the engine while idling great will just shut down.. I did get a code 33 and 34 off of the computer. When I changed the MAF today I had the same issue..
Can you help?

isn't the TPI's tps adjustable? you may need to pick up a voltage meter for this...and measure the correct voltage and adjust as neccesary
I would check that and timing! you said you changed the MAF? does it still throw the same code with the new one?
if its running rich maybe you should check the o2 sensor as well.
just some thoughts
