need help again
my camaro had been sitting for a few months (started everyday) i just started driving my camaro for 2 days and it wont keep on ..i start it and it shuts off and wont idle ...it does not smoke or knock
Re: need help again
Will it idle at a slightly higher RPM? If so I would place a dime/shim under throttle stop screw and witness the spray pattern of injectors. Even conical spray should be seen. fresh fuel filter?

Re: need help again
ok ive changed the distributor cap and all of the spark plug wires and plugs ..my car still surges i got some throttle body cleaner and sprayed it on my car started to run a little bit but then died so i opened up the throttle body and sprayed it in while it was on ..i think my fuel pump isnt sending enough fuel to the tbi ..does this sound reasonable
