Does the wire to the coils get a signal from the ecu to fire? Maybe turn down the fuel pressure? All your wiring harness grounds hooked up? When I put my engine back in, I forgot a few(but the car still ran fine)

You could have a leaky injector. I had the same problem on my SE-R when I forgot to grease up the lower injector O-ring. I'm betting that the $0.50 o-ring needs to be either replaced or relubed, vasaline works just fine too .

hummmm
sounds like a possible cause but i did replace the O-ring and lubed it also. Ill check it out tho.... i got a P1320 code yesterday. Ignition Primary Circuit. but it hasnt come up since. I followed the service manual and found that the condenser was out of spec...replaced it with one of my spares thats good but that did jack...this sucks!

You might wanna check to make sure none of your injectors are stuck open..
