ok.. .i have an 89 skyline gtst and when i try to start it cold it wont start unless i pump the gas pedal. once it has started it starts idling about 900 to a 1100. after a few minutes it jumps up to 1500 to 2000. when i put it in gear it bogs down and if i dont give it gas it stalls. it will take off in reverse and drive but i only get about 1500 rpms and doesnt go over 10 mph. can anyone help me? i was thinking coil harness or maybe a bad fuel filter or vacuum leak.

buddy you need to check vacuum and check to see if you have flooded the cylinders. Check fuel pressure and then lastly check MAF!
