I'm in need of some advice. I spent Saturday at Road America (Thanks MFBA!!) with my 1991 TA 1LE and had some mechanical problems that need attention. After about 10 total laps, the car stalled out at around 3,000 RPM. It would rev fine in neutral, but once in gear it would cut out at around 3k. It ran fine going home (at 2.5k on the freeway), but if I punched the gas, the car stalled out. Can anyone out there give me an idea of what's going on? I suspect it's computer related but I just don't know where/how to start fixing this problem. Also, can anyone recommend a shop or a mechanic in the SE Wisconsin area (I'm just outside of Madison) who is familiar with the F-bodies and could help me fix this, as well as help me with modifications to make my 1LE a bit more competitive? I don't want to drop it off at the local shop (for Billy-Joe Bubba to hammer on), and, once this is fixed, I'd like to avoid ordering performance parts *****-nilly.....Any help getting me in touch with a 3rd gen go-fast shop would be appreciated. You can reach me direct at kos@smallbytes.net

 

Someone posted they own a shop in SE WI specializing in third gens in a thread. If I find it, I'll post a link or something.

 

A really good shop in the madison area is can't drive 55. Thats the name of the place, and a guy by the name of Jim Buckmaster would be the one who works on these things. Has bee doing this for 25 years and knows everything about muscle cars. he helped me custom programming my chip a few years ago.

 

I think Can't drive 55 closed but you can find Jim Buckmaster in the phone book in Madison. He is a genius with anything from points to computers, carbs to fuel injection.

 

Thanks guys. I'm still trying to either get a tune, or get somebody to teack me how. My 91 is a great car but needs a little magic to make the track days special. I'll try to track down Jim B and see if he's interested in a side job.
