Figured everything out!
Thats right along the lines of what I was thinking, so I did some back tracking to find my problem and I found that the coil and the crank shaft sensor plugs were swopped. My help was just plugging wires in where they fit, so i swopped them back and she ran perfectly. Thanks for the tip.
