any codes? my 1j did a similar thing when I first swapped it in. that was of coarse because I didn't have a map sensor. probably not your problem but codes would still help.

if the check engine light is on then there will be codes stored. what you need to do then is:

1. turn the car off
2. connect the te1 and e1 plugs in the diagnosis plug located on the intake manifold
3. turn the key to on.

at this point the check engine light will flash. count how many times it flashes then there will be a pause followed by more flashing. ex: flash...flash...flash........flash flash. would mean you have code 32. pay attention because there may be more then one code.
