Tuck masters!!!!!!
So i did a wire tuck on my car today..
i did the harness that goes across the front of the engine.. i didnt cut any wires simply unwrapped the plastic and then re wrapped it with electrical tape no wires were snipped at all what so ever..
then i went along reconnecting everything where it should reach simply to make sure everything would fit and reach..
then after everything was said and done i started my car up and it seems like its misfiring i get a check engine light.. dont know what it is simply because i dont have a OBII code reader..
i did not DISCONECT the negative battery terminal i know.. noob mistake
i then thought that maybe by reseting my ECU it would go away.. but only the check engine light went away yet the issue is still there..
the engine shakes a bit and you can tell something is off.. i know its not the connections because they all fit and they all reach.. what could it be?
did i just Eff up my harness??or even worse my car?
if anyone can help id appreciate it..

I found this when i did a google search... could this be my issue?
"just did a wire tuck on a g35 coupe. Received the code PO725. I traced every single wire related to the ignition, tb, MAS, and various plugs in the engine bay. Everything is right. No crossed wires, no exposed wires for possible shorts. All of the grounding wires that mount on the timing cover, i extended with a 12gauge wire for every 2 wires, to a spot on the trans. i spent @ least 2 hours analysing the engine bay and underneath the car. Everything is plugged in correctly. What else could be wrong? When i drive the car, its sluggish as though i were driving a MT, driving from a dead stop and taking off in 2nd or 3rd gear. PLEASE HELP" - some guy on the internet

one of the ignitor cables..
im thinking i probably wasnt paying enough attention and may have plugged one of the ignitors wrong..

^Unplugging everything w/o unpluggin the battery can mess with your throttle position, it fvcked mine up when sean put on my throttlw body and forgot to unplug the battery. ran all fvcked up for a couple weeks then it fixed itself
wheels, prob 4 week, face should be finished tomorrow, lips should be comming in end of the week

now do you know how to do the other two wire tucks
i will be doing them.. i know i have to make a whole where the hrness can enter and exit.. and from what i see i can run the harness close to the CoilOvers i have
and they even seem easier because there are less plugs
