hey guys ,, i figured i would turn to you guys about this.....(let me change that THESE ) problems that im having....well here is the list. any suggestions welcome....

car is a 1995 base w/abs, vsld, 2.4L ka24de...Custom Exhaust from cat back.....and just a MAF adpt. air filter.

Have changed the Plugs, Wires, Dist. Cap and Rotor, Belts, Alt. and Had Replaced A MAF due to when changing the belts arm bumped the harness and ripped the wire out....also fixed wire.

Problems:

1. When i bought the car it ran completly fine....two days later i went to change the belts and thats is when i had ripped out the MAF wire....and fixed that but ever since then the car has never ran well..Car starts up and does not run very well....when I give it just a little and i mean like barely stepping on the gas it revs up fine...if i give it any more it boggs a little and revs up.....the more gas i give it initally off of idle the harder it boggs....if i give it full throttle from idle car preatty much dies just goes pop pop pop pop until i let off and then it returns to normal. When I advanced the timing with the dist. all the way as far as it can go the idle is bouncy but when i give it full throttle i reacts fine....but when coming to a stop i have to play with the throttle so that it wont die on me....not all the time it dies but sometimes...but that just kinda bandaided the problem of throttle response for me to drive around without it bogging out. I currently have the timing back to factory 18* BTDC

2. EGI fuse has never been in the car since i bought it around 3 years ago...When I put a fuse in that spot the car will not turn off when i turn the key and can pull the key completely out and walk away.....car just kinda putts but wont turn off.......with the fuse not in there the car will turn off normally..

I figured I'd ask you gus cuz I'm just completely lost right now and tired of thinking for myself ......so please help....Thanks ahead of time

Sometimes you could have a code without the check engine light on, but how did you fix your MAF? Did you get wires back in the correct position? Are the wires making full contact?

true i'll check the codes today......on the MAF only the one wire pulled out....it actually pulled out from the terminal itself so i had replaced the terminal and about 3 inches of new wire.....soldered the connections so its not just taped....but was thinking of rewiring the whole sensor itself just incase.....first i'll check the codes and see

HOLY SH_T this is the same problem I have ,I cant figure it out I have bought so many new parts trying to fix this that the only thing i can think is left would be bad gas in the tank and i know thats not the problem. If anybody found the fix to this please let me know. :dblthumb:
