Ok, I have a 91 GTA that I jsut put a heads and cam deal on it and finally got it put back together yesterday. After tweaking the fuel pressure and the timing I got it to run good. Only problem is when you shift into gear(it's an auto) it jerks and immeadiatly dies. Not sure what is causing it but I'm stumped! Any helpe would be great!
gas i know it sound stupid but my car did the same thing it was because i was low on gas it would rev fine in park and neutral but the second i put it in drive it would still
is it cold? i know mine when its cold or has set for a long time,i cant put it in gear til it warms up cuz itll die....sounds strange but just a thought
You either have a vacume leak or not enough vacume from that new cam. But you might be able to get away with turning up the idle air speed and stuff you just got to try diffrent things.

I have a T5 in my car, and a carb, but mine is the same way. Mine can't be driven untill its got a chance to warm up to about 45-50*C.
