1990 240sx with s14 KA24DE. Engine immediately redlines when started.
Had a coolant leak and had to take the intake manifold off to get to the hose. I also replaced both of the intake manifold gaskets while I had it off. Threw it back together and now when I go to start it, it turns over a little rough, idles a little rough for a second and then shoots to redline. I already disconnected the throttle body sensor and cranked over and still the same thing. All I feel is air gushing out around the intake manifold area and I can’t really pinpoint where exactly. Any ideas?
