engine wont idle at all after lower intake gasket replacement
attemped to replace the lower intake manifolds on my car. after completion i started it and it would not idle whatsoever. it would only run if i floored it and then it would run all the way to the limiter and as soon as i let off it would sputter and backfire through intake and die. i have checked plug wires, electrical connections, fuel injectors for proper seating, and i have even now takin it all back aprt to check the pushrods and they were all right. i did manage to brak a few plastic lines when in was dissasembling. one of these is the line that comes of of the small box located behind the coil pack. i also broke the one coming out of the front valve cover and top of throttle body. but i doubt these would make it run so poorly. like i said it would not idle at all just die. and at half throttle it could barely maintain rpm and was sputtering and backfiring through intake. now that i have it all aprt again i just dont know what to do.

gdipilato, rkvons is right, sounds like you have some vacuum leaks to fix.
