I recently swapped an s13 blacktop into my 97. After fixing my faulty MAF wiring(doh) the car is running ok. However the idle fluxuates from 1100-900RPM while sitting, if i rev the motor high and let off, the idle will drop to 300-400 and come back up. When im driving the car it stalls CONSTANTLY. If I let the idle fall to low it will just die.

Also i've read somewhere a faulty coolant temp sensor giving incorrect readsing could screw with your idle. I didn't swap the KA sensor with the SR sensor since my friend sort of broke it. Could this be causing my problem?
