also i was wonderinf if anyone new if the wiring harness for a protege5 motor and trans was the same as the one for a protege ES -
The wiring harness/ECU is different between the auto and manual cars. If your ES is a 2.0L then it will have the same engine harness as a Protege5 with the same transmission.

This is nothing but a pure guess, but it could be that that the ecu has a slightly different program and that you need to have yours flashed. I would check to make sure you're getting a good spark to each plug and you may also want to check the timing. Clean your sensors, idle control valve and throttle body. Make sure the EGR is working right and check for any engine codes.Comment

Idle control
It's mounted on the backside of the throttle valve. There is a plug going to it so it should be fairly obvious. When you clean it I believe you need to grab the side of the phillips screw with a pair of vise grips or something. It's quite hard to unscrew with a screwdriver.Comment
