Strange stall after vacuum lines rebuild

First start after long months of standing showed that there is no idle rpms.
Were changed:
1. Main engine wire
2.throttle
3.mass sensor
4. All the spark lines included caps and inside
5.fuel valve
6. All the valve lines rebuilded after awful previous DIY
Excepting two noname lines(still trying to find out what are they for)

Now all is good with idle rpms,but! It backed to stall in this way:

If Admins will permit me to held the history of the repair here i ready to add:
Now it works well but idle rpms are low and ...it not riding up to the hill. Stalls and Wot is not working at all -I even can't add gas to ride to the hill.

Short test tells us this info (screenshots attached).

Please help me to define -what EFP is?
It seems that all the trouble in it bacause I can't make a efp actuations-no any audible (as hht says) sounds .

EFP = E-GAS module (throttle body controller). If you clear all those codes, do they come back right away?

:scratchchin:
 
EFP = E-GAS module (throttle body controller). If you clear all those codes, do they come back right away?

:scratchchin:

This is always staying (code 182):
proxy.php


And after engine start these appears (048, 096, 182).:
proxy.php


Maybe smth wrong with egas Ecu?
 
048 indicates a fault with one of the sensors inside the ETA itself. How old is the ETA? If it's original... it's highly suspect...

096 is the starter lockout switch / NSS on the transmission, if it's old, replace it & make sure it's adjusted properly. Common failure.

Not sure what 182 is, would need to look at the WIS diagnostics, test 23, step 18 (per the diagnostic code sheets).

:scratchchin:
 
Just want to help someone in the same trouble.
Still seeking for the reason, but:
1.ETA rebuild!
2.new vacuum lines and transmission modulator
3.The main: o rings

Waiting for new O-rings and then will make a review!

My regards

Are those the O-rings between the upper + lower halves of the intake manifold? I've been wondering if those are degrading over time. They're not fun to replace, either!

Exactly they are! Intake manifold halves. They became very fragile.
 
I recognize them from my manifold rebuild. The o-rings on my car were not broken, but they were rally hard.
