Urgent help!!! ka24e to ka24de /5 speed swap problem

[kanye240]

Ok ,I recently did a ka24e to ka24de /5 speed swap and I have lots of issues to address.I will to try to be as detailed as possible

First

I timed my motor and got it running fine.I turned it off and back on to see if was a fluke ....it wasn't . Cool cool

But my cluster didnt work at all .....no tach...no fuel gauge.....no Temp gauge nothing...but when I turn the headlight lights on ...it flashes

So i thought i was the TCU unit ....so I check that and circults were fine.I even tried to ground the red wire with the yellow strip......still nothing

Second

A couple of hours go by and I and tried to start it again and doesnt start .So i took the the spark plugs to see if they flooded.......I wipe them off and tried again ......It starts but kinda rough

Then i tried it again a couple of hours later and it started but died and was rattling ( i took the guides off along time ago)

i did the wiring right ( I followed the guide from here on nico) but i did do an extra connector that hidden close to firewall ......Could that be it

Also the fuses and alt and battery are fine

any help would be nice

thanx !!!!!!!
