First off, I would like to say be easy on me

and I appreciate any info you put.
So I go with my buddy so he can grab a daily driver and I liked it so i grabbed it.
After a battery jump and a trip to the gas station for the empty tank it fired up, rough idle and I noticed a leak and a loose bolt on left side of manifold.
after letting it idle for a minute or 2 my buddy threw it in first and tried to see how it ran moving and it instantly cluttered out and cut off....any ideas? it was late
and I had to leave so i will pick it up mon.
I know it looks rough but car only needs to run for 3 months while I get this 4age swap lined up front clip is about 1200 shipped to me and I have a guy who will drop it for $300 but I would like someone else to wire the harness because I think that will be the only trouble correct? might have to give drivenconcepts a call in tampa.
