It's running and idling every time i start it now. Idles a little rough until it's warm then it smooths out. For a while it was dying after a few seconds at most. I went through the front half of the car and fixed all the wiring. Now all the electrical up front works and is wired right. I found a few connections that were pretty bad, one was to the fuel pump relay and the other to the power relay. Other than that I've been taking Rays advice and trying to get familiar with the whole system. In the next few days i should have some free time from work to start setting other things straight.
