Re: 1991 Z28 starts and dies

From a guy that's not an expert. At least try this test. Disconnect your maf if you have one and see if the car runs the same with it disconnected. If it's working properly the engine will struggle...

Re: 4 reasons why you should remove the AIR (smog) pump

Not that anyone cares at this point but as for me, gone with the air system and to hell with the dog crap cat. Not worth the money to fix and a pain in my rear. If you don't like it then in the words...

Re: 1991 camaro Z-28 3500 o.b.o.

All I wanna know is one thing. Where did you get those headlights? Or did you just buy some blue xenon replacements? I'd love to check it out but its a bit of a drive for me.

Re: How did you get into your Camaro/Firebird?

Re: 1991 Z28 starts and dies

Are you testing the fuel pressure at the rails? Should be around 40 psi. If not start back tracing towards the tank is my advice. If you ran the gas low on hot day the stress and heat may have...

Re: trans is causing stalling

Also forgot to mention that the car chugs a bit while accelerating because of this issue as well. I've recently had idle problems so I've ruled out TPS, IAC, and things like that.

Re: P.O.S. Iroc- in need of help

So what did I unplug right next to my throttle body? I thought that was the map? Would it be worth investing in a new EGR valve or just diealing with it since it only happens when its cold?
