Thanks a whole lot all you guys and girls.
The car finally started yesterday.
To the FACTS: I took my head out and found out that I made a SHITTY ASS job on the head. Really shitty job with the gaskets and the raise with the shims (the sandwich technic will never work).
So I did it properly now, bougt a new head and a cometic gasket.
BUT it now is hard to start and idles very poorly and runs crappy but goes well over 4000 rpm.
Went to the mechanic to check injectors, sparks, CAS, and some small stuff he checked and it all seemed fine but he thinks still that my spark plug cables may be causing this because i have two cables from an hyndai sonata from the scrapyard and two cables from a lancer V6 or he says it's maby also something wrong with the Airflow Meter because the spark plug cables still checked out good with a strobe light that checks cables while it idles.
Now when I barely came home with it from the mechanic it wont even start. =O(
Im so close I know, PLEASE DSM expert, PLEASE.
Now I threw a screwdriver on the windshield window and made a small crack at the bottom of the windscreen.
I mean soon there will be nothing left of this car.
It's really and honestly driving me NUTS!!
I need desperate help, thought i was really going to drive it this weekend.
I guess not this time either. =O(
ps: i have a MAF Translator, should i test with it and what settings should I use?
O r what in the H**L should i do?????????????????????????????????????????????
Yall are great people for helping a fellow DSM:er out.
Sincerely Alex.

Can somebody please help me out?
I swapped the spark plug cables with new BOSCH ones and I mounted the MAF translator with all the settings at zero. It didn't start up.
But after i changed the four small pins on the translator that says ON on the first one and CTS on the fouth one, I put them all facing up and the results was:
Started up all of a sudden after cranking a couple times and reved up fine and had good idle, but when i reved it up and released the pedal it wanted to die off again and i pumped the gas and it came back to idle again.
I could drive it normally, but then after i went to the gas station to fill her up it wouldn't start at all, not even cold, i came back for it after a couple off hours. Had to be towed, AGAIN. Tried to start it with different settings on the MAF but still nothing, it wanted to catch sometimes but still no luck starting it. Tested again with my brothers car battery because i sucked out mine, with the same settings on the MAF as when it ran. STILL NO LUCK. Caught a couple of times wanted to start but still NO.
Finding a problem
is the biggest problem
I just know that any problem 
is to be resolved
