i recently had to replace my 99 d16y8 motor with a 96 d16y8. i replaced the manifold. car started and ran great until it got warmed up. then it started chugging. what should i try next? ecu? is there anything else you would suggest? and is this even a viable engine swap. i'm not a mechanic but i had help from my son who is (just not super experienced with this issue)

Check the engine compression and fuel pressure
