Hey guys new to this forum! Here's my issue. So the 94 Trans Am has been running rough. Turns out it had a stripped spark plug hole on the passenger head. So I took the liberty of disassembling the head and doing the thread insert correctly. After putting the car back together, the car wont start unless the gas pedal is down about half way. When it starts it runs REALLY rough and dies after I take my foot off the pedal. I've checked the wiring, its all correct, all the sensors, besides the ICM and Knock sensor, are new. Even the MAF and Opti which is OEM AC Delco. The car smells SUPER rich and I don't see any vacuum leaks. However, the EGR pipe from the Manifold is cracked a little. Do you guys have any ideas? Im stumped and cant figure it out/: Thanks in Advance!

Plug wires crossed maybe?

Checked those a couple times already/:I'll check again just to verify! Could the ICM be bad? Its OEM and was never changed. I also checked the fuel rail last night I lifted the fuel rail up and primed the system. No drips were seen. Then when I had someone start it, the injectors were all spraying fuel. I'm totally stumped! Spark pulgs are NGK TR55's brand new. It has to be something electrical or something in the spark.
