first thing you should do is check the ECM for any stored trouble codes. jumper pins A&B together at the diagnostics terminal. turn your ignition on but dont start the car. watch your check engine light, it will flash once, pause, flash twice = code 12. this tells you it is in self test mode, it will flash 3 sets of each stored code.

No codes or anything. this started after the intake and injector project. No vacume leaks. O2 is good at 010-840. Idles straight at 550. Timing is at 8* and TPS at .54. No ses light or anything. I'm thinking maybe MAF
