Default Spits and dies, cant idle
Hello forum
Last weekend I had changed timing belt, waterpump, v-belt, oil, oil filter, spark plugs and gasoline filter.

Yesterday I then started the car for a test run, but the engine was acting very weird. It spits from the exhaust when ever I leave the gas, and If i don't give it gas it will shut down and needs to be started again.. RPM is between 1000-2000 and dies whenever the gas is not on.

Anyone knows what can be wrong, and where to start looking?

Have you timed it up correctly?

Did you have any sensors disconnected ? e.g. idle control valve (stepper), throttle position sensor, MAP sensor? Sounds a bit like something is unplugged.
