I just had my 95 eclipse rebuilt with another 6bolt with some goodies in it.. I now have a cold start issue!! My o2 sensor is bad im pretty sure because on ecm link it reads at a steady 0.02volts???? I also think I have one injector ticking only at idle (resistor pack)??? I also was wondering if the 2g 4pin tps should still work with the 1g 3pin tps??? Any tips? just trying to get this thing running smooth? Not to forget it smells helly gassy and idk if that is common with upgraded injectors i have 650's in it now, or im just running really rich?

Welll do you have something to tune with? Bigger injectors at the same pressure is more fuel making you run rich unless I'm mistaken

Change the o2 and then report back if its bad change it because it'll bite you later on.
 
Just as Brian said, you're going to need to use the proper TPS, replace your 02 Sensor, and then set Link properly to accommodate the injectors. This will include dialing in the deadtimes and global scale. Once this is finished, getting the MAF set properly VS the changes in the fuel you make will help smooth out your idle tremendously.

It can be tedious, but once you do it and you feel the difference you make - it's very satisfying.
 
I sent my whole ecu in to ecmlink and the upgraded it to v3 and put in for the injector compensation. I know how to use that much ive gone through and set some values but without a properly working 02 I really cannot do much so I just ordered a AEM wideband. I will get that tps swapped over to a 4 pin. I read that the cold start could be an issue from thremostat housing wiring since on the swap it changes that up a bit? Im not entirely sure though...
