Need help...

Hello,

I came upon your forums while looking for help with my Camaro. I hope you can help me out. I'm having some problems with my 1995 3.4L v6 Camaro. About 3-4 weeks ago my car began to bog down while driving. I would hold down the gas, it would stall some, then it would slowly go. I replaced the plugs and wires and had trouble starting it after doing so. It may be I need a new battery but that was the first time it had not started.

Once we had it started we pumped the gas a few times and it was still stuttering and stalling a lot. We checked the wires and plugs and they were all fine. A friend of mine helping out with the work on the car said it could be the timing belt.

I'm not sure what else could be wrong with it. I have checked all the fluid levels, checked the spark plugs and wires and more.

Any help or ideas what could be wrong with it? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

bogging

pull codes from the computer. Willing to bet you have a fuel issue. Have you changed the fuel filter lately? Check fuel pressure. Its not a timing BELT your car doesnt have a timing belt it has a chain. since it boggs when applying gas it seems that it is a fuel starvation problem. The other thing it could be is a clogged catalytic converter. Clogged converter increases back pressure that could cause the engine to bog and stall.
