I did my alternator relocation with the jay racing kit and got a new 220 amp alternator. The car ran fine before doing the relocation and now it starts immediately and then just dies out , I have fuel pressure and I have spark to all 4 cylinders. The alternator has 0 gauge running to it and is grounded to the block. The starter has power and cranks and the under the hood fuse box has power to it. I’m not sure what else could be causing this. All sensors are plugged in as well.

Did you disconnect the battery when you did this? It’s not a voltage issue. Maybe you blue a fuse
I did disconnect the battery , I had tried taking the kick panel fusebox out to run a wire so I messed with it for a little then gave up and decided to run it through the firewall some where else so I bolted the Kickpanel fuse box back I wonder if I wiggled an ignition wire loose or something around it

I’d check there first and make sure everything is plugged in. I had my interior fuse panel out and when I was done, the blinkers intermittently weren’t working. Everything was plugged in. Started pushing all the wires in that plug and it hasn’t given me an issue since. Probably a case of old car/wiring LOL

Yeah I’m going to check the wiring by the kick panel I just don’t even know what could cause the car to start and then immediately stall like in the video. In the morning I am going to test my injectors and make sure they are spraying fuel because it is acting like it doesn’t have enough fuel and when I give it gas to try to keep the car running nothing happens it seems like the throttle is doing nothing
