Default code problems still

65 mustang with 89 5.0 used stock wiring harness.
This motor ran perfectly before i swapped it.
Deleted egr with egr plugin dummy delete and blockoff plate.
removed smog and the egr solenoid along with all the crap next to it.

Car starts and runs but runs rough and when up to temp i have to WOT start the car.

If i move the salt n pepper shakers at all while the car is running it dies...

Getting codes
35
51
53
54
67
81
82
84
85
I have a wireing diagrams and know what each code is but have no idea how to fix my problems. I have done a base idle reset for the tps. Im getting 14.25v of charge.

Im thinking its not usual for the car to die when the shakers are touched... maybe bad contacts?

input and suggestions would be great
Thanks

pull connectors apart and close up the contacts individually, I had to take apart my connector one pin at a time and clean contacts and close up the connector pins individually to make better contact, once you have done that , clear codes and rerun tests

will do! so moving the connectors should not change the idle of the car or make it stall correct?

Common sense to me says i should be able to yank them around as much as i want without any reaction from the car.
