Matt, I know you are trying to do what you think is right, but pulling your motor to clean some gunk out of it isn't the best thing for you to do.

Before you do anything else to the car, either get the wiring fixed so that you can run it the way it is, or rip all of the ECM wiring out and get a regular carb on there to use.

After the car is running, you can buy any number of things that will help clean out your motor. Most people like Seafoam engine cleaner. You can pour half a can or so into the oil, and the other half into the gas tank. I think they say to run the car for 300-500 miles with the Seafoam in the oil, and then get it changed.
