I thought English was the native language of NJ. I have no idea what you just said.
Can you explain a little more clearly?

So I did the 20 v silvertop engine swap and got the harness from tweekperformance and plugged it into my 1994 corolla. but now when I try to turn on the car, it turns on but wont stay on and when I try to accelerate it does nothing. I don't have the original afm to the 20 v silvertop but I read on another blog on here that a 1987-1991 Toyota camry afm works with this as well. So I got it and put it on. do you think not having the original afm is the reason the car not stay on and not accelerating. if not, do you know what the problem might be? please advice.

Man I'm no expert but at least look over your sensors real good before going much deeper. How does the car act when at idle. Can you give it gas and keep the car running when in neutral. If no then possibly its burning very rich. Notice any smoke or smelling fuel in exhaust? Also check engine light should get first priority if present. Just need more info to pursue any other possible problems. And even though the harness was built by the pros it could still be the root of all this.just consider this as well.
This is all just a matter of opinion and definitely fact check me before doing anything crazy.
Hope you get it workin.
