Checking the diaphrams is easy. Start the car and let it idle. Open the hood en let it rev, you should see the the diaphrams open up the valves in the intake.
Be sure to check that first. If the diaphrams are working, check your ECU for errors. You know if there is an error when the ECU symbol stays lit for about 7 seconds after you started the car.
To read the ECU errors, check the guide at www.zx16v.net
