I recently done a swap on my 80 Mustang and i am having problems with the engine cranking and cranking before it will start. Some times it will back fire while cranking some times it wont. The engine is fresh and has about two hours of run time on it in the car. Once the car does start i have been having issues with it wanting to idle at 2k rpm. The high idle part i believe is related to my TPS not staying at a learned 0%. I can do a TPS learn and set the closed throttle TPS voltage at .47V and it will read 0%. Try to start the car a few times and then it will be showing 1-2% closed throttle. The TPS senor i slotted the holes to be able to adjust the tps voltage. Also on the hard starting part i have noticed that it is getting worse. Last two times the car was started to move it i had to mist alittle ether for it to try to fire. Once it does intially fire it will stay running. I am using a Fbody harness and verified last night that the outter cam sensor wires are swapped side to side for the LS2 cam sensor. Here's a run down of what the engine is.
