Car won’t start

Asked by GuruBLLR2 Dec 30, 2018 at 12:29 AM about the 1997 Ford Probe GT

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Ok so I recently changed the intake manifold
gaskets in my probe. And after I got it all
back together it won’t run now. It did before I
took the intake off, but now it starts and idles
real high for about 2 seconds and then dies.
Any ideas on what that could be?
