So these are the pictures of my motor my mechanic says its the carb i was told its the throtel body but the problem is that the car wont stay on i believe the injectors are broken or something can anyone help me out thanks

thanks

 

that is definitly a throttle body.

 

ok do you own a timing light??? try to get it running and shine the timing light on the injector spray. see if it is spraying and dripping. it should be a uniform shower from the injectors.

 

I would be getting a new mechanic if they don't even know the diffrence between a carb and a throttle body injection system.

I would just get someone to hit the throttle with the ign. off first of all to see if gas is actually going through it. if not, I would unhook the fuel line to make sure fuel is actually being pumped to the injectors. then if it is I would expect the injectors.

obviously if someone trys to start it and you can see the gas coming out of the injectors thats not the problem.

I would also check the spark plugs, cap, rotor, ignition coil, fuses, just the basic tune up stuff. you could probably by a good throttle body off of someone on here for cheap if you have to or just switch the intake and use a carb, much better imo. good luck.

 

actually its a 1991 Camaro RS
305, 5.0

 

Step #1 is to test the fuel pump to make sure it's getting gas from the tank.

 

Which only came with a throttle body.

Moving to the TBI forum.

 

Step #0, make sure you have gas in your tank.

 

Did your mechanic seriously tell you that was a carb? :|

New mechanic time, next you'll have unicorns in your exhaust.

 

Your mechanic is right... Also change your muffler bearings and replace your headlight fluid while your fixing it... Time for a new mechanic.

 

I would chek the fuel pressure and timing

 

i bet you have one bad injector. it will stumble miss cut up and then sut off. there not that expensive from vendors.
