Vac. hose left/bumped off? eg. MAP sensor? heater controls?

It can't be too much - assuming you only pulled the fuel rails.

Maybe an injector 'O' ring isn't sitting in the hole properly.

If the injectors are used, maybe they're stuffed.

Dumped a heap of fuel into the manifold? (That should clear pretty quickly.)

Just a thought. Hows the MAP sensor maybe it's playing up as the ECM uses the info for spark and fuel control. You could also check the vacuum hose to the sensor for leaks or restrictions after moving things around you might have inadvertently caused an issue so the MAP sensor is not working properly.

Oops typing reply when previous post went up,,,, but some more info

with the engine idling the MAP voltagle to the ECM should vary from about 1 - 2 volts to about 4 - 5 volts at wide open throttle.
