Hi guys, was originally gonna drop in my built bottom end and retune, but had few things missing, so for the mean time, ive dropped in a Y4 block to keep the car running as it is my dd...

So basically im reusing my old Y8 vtec head on a Y4 bottom end, and now the car isnt drive able, pretty shattered about it :( lucky ive still got my weekend 4x4 toy to drive for mean time

on idle, it it hunts up and down, than when u rev it a bit it dies...

almost sounds like its on 3 cylinders, ive double checked all the injector plugs, checked the dizzy and spark plugs

Now could it be because i installed the timing belt incorrect? missing a tooth or cam and crank werent aligned properly?

I had replaced water pump, belt and seals since it was all out...

Any suggestion as to what it is?

cheers

check your timing, check compression.
