try to give it some gas and when it starts keep the rev up until it warms up and then it should idle fine......having same problem w-emance......

of course thats after making sure you dont have vac leak....

whats your fuel pressure reading? should be at 36psi, double check everything.

Just getting a reading on your FPR isn't enough to tell you that the engine is actually getting fuel. Crank it over a few times and pull the plugs, make sure they are wet with fuel. If not, looks like you've got an injector or rail problem. If you do have fuel, I'd look at timing first.

I'm having the same problem. I just installed an Emance ECU and made the coversion harness. The car cranks but I am getting no spark. I called Jason @ Emance a few times over the past few weeks and wrote emails but have gotten no response. I made the conversion harness exactly to the specs on his website with the ECU pin numbers. I am getting fuel but no spark.
