Here's the background:
I have a 2g mas in a 1g car. Car was running fine, had been with this setup for almost 2 years now, I was driving down the highway and the worm clamp that holds my intake on fell off, ended up dragging my entire intake setup down the highway for about 3/8 mile. Limped it home about 4 miles with no mas.
The mas plug was broken so I bought a new one and soldered it on. Started the car and it wouldn't idle right, found that I had two of my wires wrong so I took them all off again and re-soldered them. Car would then start up and idle like normal, but at the slightest touch of the gas pedal car try to die. Running super rich and building boost if you rev it up in neutral. CEL will come on but only when giving it gas, and the ecu isn't storing a code for whatever it is.
So I figured the mas was bad and bought a known good one, fresh off a buddy's car. Put it on yesterday and still same thing. Woke up early this morning and went through all the wiring again and still same thing. CEL still comes on but won't store a code.
I have correct voltage in the wiring and the ground is also good. I don't know if there's a way to check the other wires on the harness or not.
I'm just wondering if I could've shorted something out when the mas plug broke on the highway?
