Erratic Error Codes?
I recently have started working on my car to get it redone and lookin good. well ever since i have had the car the check engine light has always been on. i assume because of bad sensors and a hack job of some wires 
i grounded the terminal to manually read my codes to find out whats going on and the code stated: Erratic or intermitted at times. What does this mean i need to do so that i can start reparing my camaro.? Please help me. there are alot of things that i need to fix but i can read my codes do to this problem. thanks

Re: Erratic Error Codes?
I had this issue with a conversion to my 727 ecu (from a vette) and it was a dead ecu.
Look into that, swap ecu's from someone else if you can. My car ran even without a chip in it, it did not run any different either, The computer was in some sort of backup mode off a hardcoded limp home mode.
