i just swapped my 91 motor into a 90 body and rewired the two plugs on the engine harness that were different. then plugged everything in and my tach doesn't work and the car wont start i had it started a couple times but it only ran on 2 cylinders. i got spark and pretty sure i got fuel i am stumped ???????? any advise please help
 
Sounds to me like something isnt wired right. I'd double check or even triple check everything. One loose or faulty connection could be all it takes. I'm amazed you got it running on two cylinders, well kind of, those motors can take a hell of a beating.

Sry just for clarification, you had it running right after the re-wire or it ran in another vehicle?
