I just installed a donor motor in to my new project car. Its a 98 lx autotragic.... Everything went smooth for the most part with the help of a couple friends of course. The only problem was when i went to start it up... no spark! 
So i changed out the dizzy and 
but when it fired up, the car automatically started revving really high as if you were throttling it by foot. So I though it was the throttle cable so i completely unhooked it to see if that would stop it and ... nope! still revs really high like almost almost 5000 RPM. NO check engine lights on, only a D4 light flashing. I must say though i did break the shift link cable but can still put the tranny in gear (I will be replacing it tho). This is the first start up the motor has had in a while (since its been sitting in the salvage yard for about 8months), so i def dont want to leave the car on having this issue. I did however lube up the camshaft because of this very reason so i hope this helps some. I do have a 30 day warranty with the motor and motor does have 56k on it. If anyone has ever had this problem please if you could point me in the right direction i would appreciate it. One question i do have tho " Do you think the shift link may have something to do with this? please get back to me thanks
