So I'm currently trying to start my new engine and it starts for a second then dies. For a little while it would run if i gave it throttle.

I'm currently running on ecmlink, rc 1000cc injectors, bc272, 8:5.1 je pistons (wouldn't think it would effect idle) . I adjusted my TPS and my global at -55.1 with the dead time at 490 and its still not running. 3214 spark plug wires

So I'm wondering if i don't have the right fuel injector order or something. What is the order? Or could be another cause?
 
Have you watched the ecm link video, sounds like another issue if it dies, not idle, check for any leaks and compression test, and do you have fuel at the rail.
 
Yeah i've watched the videos and for the most part have the injectors mildly dialed in. i found out one of the injector wires were hooked to the wrong injector im going to try and start it again right now.
