I replaced original motor with a 1993 motor it started four or five times and ran by itself rough. Now it won't start. Still got fire, still got gas, replace distributor, has new plugs new wires.

Hello,

Did you do any work to the engine like rebuild it, than install it, or did you get from somewhere and install it?

Thanks,
Alex
