I have an s5 swapped into an s4. Emissions and cold start deleted. I've sorted out the electrical situation (I think). So I have spark, compression(100 lbs x3 both sides), and fuel. But only a sputter when I try to start it. I'm pulling 4lbs of vacuum at the lim and nothing at the uim. I sprayed some starting fluid in the throttle and it revved up really high then quit. The only thing I can think is I have way too much air. But any suggestions to check or try would be appreciated.

Ok so got an update went out and started work again today. Checked the plugs no spark so I swapped for another old set. And she fired with some throttle manipulation. She smoked like a freight train for a few mins. But won't hold an idle. I'm working on this by myself so it would be tough to feather the peddle and adjust the idle screw
