HELP!!! START and DIES

[mopartsdenyou]

Ok well I have been working on the motor for the past month and just got it back in the engine bay last week. I have put everything back on the motor and went to start it and it just died. The motor starts and 1 sec later shuts down.
I checked the timing 3 times and everything is perfect. I also replaced the plugs and the coils and wires. still no luck.
the only things different that i installed was the SSAFC and the PG IM.
I am leaning towards thinking it is a vac problem or fuel, but i checked the fuel pressure and everything is good. I also double checked all the connections for the SSAFC to.

I need help guys and girls. REALLY BAD. (pissed)

Check the intercooler pipes, and make sure the manifold is flush on the motor. Both these are problems I faced with my old MSP. O how I don't miss the issues

i'll double check the manifold in the morning, but what do you mean the intercooler pipes? If you mean check the couplers and pipes for looseness then i have done that but i'll chack again tomorrow.
Thanks for the help!!!!

anymore suggestions and knowledge would be great.

try starting it without the ssafc... just one less thing to troubleshoot

I know it sounds dumb but is the MAF plugged in?

Get a video of you starting the car and it dieing. We should be able to hear certain things, giving us a better way to figure out what is wrong. But thats only depending upon what it is.

Is it sputtering at all or is it turning off as if you were turning the key?

hey guys. thanks for all the help. I fixed the problem. it was a major vac leak from the IM. got it fixed and the car runs fine. there is another problem though that i am going to post right after this.

thanks again

told you the manifold. did you put it on the bracket before putting the manifold onto the block? Thats what I did, and why everything got ****** up.
