No problem I'd say try a friends dizzy or something first and if that doesn't fix it then check the wiring for the crank angle sensor and check the wiring for the 2 new injectors u wired in cuz I had the same problem in my ef and the injectors weren't wired up right

Check your injectors, it could be something with your fuel delivery.

Also check your TPS.
