   when changing the head on the vts and replacing the headgasket the car now doesnt idle by itself. (have to give it throttle and it sounds terrible) when i let go of the throttle the car cuts out.
   
   could there be any way of putting the headgasket on the wrong way? and it running like this. or could it be the crankshaft sensor thats on its way out
