I have done a recent can swap in my s13 the car started and ran fine without the intercooler set up. But after I set up my fmic the car is not starting properly. I can crank it for ever without it starting. But when i pull the fuse for the fuel pump the car starts right up. After burning all the gas in the cylinders it dies. But today I tried again and once I pulled the fuse it started and stayed started almost like the fuel pump was going. I didn't run it for over 30 seconds since my rad is not hooked up but I found this very strange. It seems to me that I'm getting to much gas and not enough air. But after setting up the ic wouldn't thus give it more air causing it to run better. Although before putting in the fmic I did re do all wiring. Could this be a simple wiring problem it ran fine before. Thanks in advance for the help I'm hoping its not something big. I can upload a video of what happens to YouTube if requested.
