Post Header install probs. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!

OK so I have posted on other baords with no solvation. Now I am asking you guys for help.

I installed a set of pacesetter mids on my 94 formula. I am having 2 problems one being more important to solve than the other.

When driving the car "bucks" like it is missing but at idle it idles FINE with the exception of a surge. Here is a vid of the surge to show what it is doing http://videos.streetfire.net/video/...FBE00C03F02.htm .

Now more about the "bucking" I have checked all the plugs and they are fine. The wires are also fine. So what could be causing this? We came to a conclusion that it may ba a vacuum leak but WHERE?? I have tightened up all hoses and the EGR is tight (not sure if it sealed COMPLETELY but yeah.

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!! I want my car back to normal.

More than likely it is a wire problem.They may look fine on the outside...Make sure they are pushed on all the way.Also look at them in the dark with it running.
