Default Please help! swap only runs on 3 cylders.

So I'm trying to complete my h22 swap into my teg, but yesterday had a very disturbing problem. The car won't go past 1500 rpms without dieing, and getting bad vibrations from driver side, I looked at the engine and and the 4th cylinder header was completely cold wheras the other 3 were hot, and I was also getting some backfire. I'm at a total loss of what this could be because it was working perfectly the other day. It all started when I screwed around with my wiring yesterday to the ECU trying to get a few cel's to go away, what could I have screwed with to make the 4th cylinder go dead or is it just a coincidence? Also, I checked the 4 wires to the ecu for the injectors. Please somone help me. I'd really appreciate and help!

i was going to suggest checking your injector wires as well.thats what happend to my car when i was doin the same thing you were doing. i ended up mixing the injector wire for cyl 4. they way i found this out was when i pulled out the injectors to check them out. cyl 4 was dry, all the others were wet at the tips...i would recheck all the wiring you screwed around with again and make sure everything is how it was, since obviously it happend right after you messed with the wiring. good luck.:thumbup:

Thx dude I'll recheck all my wiring. I already checked injectors 1-4 and they seem to be properly in their respective pinouts, but I'll keep checking.
