turboford is down and i got a problem

since turboford is down i am kinda s.o.l.

alright i believe this is my last problem until i can finally start daily driving it. The car has been running really well for about the first 5-10 minutes of driving then the car gets to its operating temp and all hell breaks loose. the car will start bucking and running really bad but when i push in the clutch pedal the idle drops to a nice idle around 985-1000 RPMs but if i give it any gas it will buck and shutter. its like this is happening when it gets warm. i ran codes and came up with an 81 & 83 but Crovax you said that was associated with the swap and its because i didnt use the dual fans or something. I am kinda suspicious that it may be the ECT or ACT sensor. something telling the computer the wrong signal.

I used the ACT sensor from the n/a car. should i get one that is for a turbo car?

any ideas are greatly appreciated.

thanks

patrick
