changed my inlet manifold gasket (twice cuz i'm a tit that never got all the old one off first) and now it wont idle. just cuts out. have to keep revving it to keep it going.

was fine before i changed it. anyone know why this is happening. starting to think the car's winding me up on purpose.....

could the map sensor have just mysteriously decided to pack in to see if i'd push the car off a cliff?

pipes are all back in position. just put a new gasket on so dont think there's a leak. can the plug be put on the wrong way round?
