Finally got back into Mustangs but decided to do things a little diferent this time. Got a 91 4cyl. coupe and did a 87TC engine and trans swap using stingers wiring instructions but I am having a couple problems . Car started on the first try but now has a bad miss and rough idle but if I let it warm up for a few minutes it seems to be fine and can be driven. Already tried swaping the computer, VAM, distributor, Baro sensor, ECT sensor, distributor cap, rotor, plugs and wires but still does the same thing. Triple checked the wiring and everything looks good so I cant figure this out and its driving me crazy .

Also the electric fan only worked when the A/C was on before the swap and still the same after exept the A/C will not come on unless I unplug and re-plug the pressure switch by the firewall but it will work fine if I turn the A/C off before turning the car off and then turn it on after starting

Any help with either problem would be greatly appreciated
