02 Holden commodore vx calais 3.8 supercharged
Hey guys im new to doing everything myself to my own cars so i brought a 2002 Holden vx calais 3.8l. To clean up and build something im proud off so.
I have recently changed fuel filter oil filter new injectors new coils cleaned my Tb. I just installed new belt tensioners. And put a cold air intake on. But its really idling like **** and spiting and splattering like its not getting enough fuel or something.

Sounds like a vacuum leaks check all your hoses and that the fuel filters not backwards.

First thing I would do, is to make sure you have placed the correct plug leads on the correct plug,
If they are correct,
put the original injectors back in.

I bought a set off eBay, and my L67 ran like a bucket of bolts,
And sometimes wouldn't start,
Re-fitted the original injectors back in, and started and run correctly.

Told the person I bought them off,
they offered a refund and delayed it for so long,
I wasn't able to return them, or put a complaint into eBay and PayPal.
