whats wrong with my car?..while idling the car shakes alilttle, when it is in gear and calms down in park or neutral, also after cruising and stopping at a stop light i can smell either gas/smoke coming in my car, if i leave the windows open. My car is idling at 6-700 in neutral/park and 500 in drive.
I cleaned the points on the distributer and cap, new spark plugs and wires, good alternator, and im checking the timing timing tomorow..also i found out my ac/heater fan doesnt work and my a/c compressor doesnt kick in when i turn it on is this associated with the problem??.if u have some info on this please post


btw its a 84 transam 305 auto

 

you might find out taht your timing is out of whack. Seems like a timing problem however.


What kind of carb if at all do you have? or tpi?

 

check out your purge valve on your vacuum canister as well

 

it's a 4barrel quad..imma check the timing tonight and also the purge valve// thanks

 

Check teh timing. Clean the carb. Check the TPS voltage (should be 0.48VDC). Check the MC solenoid operation. Make sure the oxygen sensor is generating a signal. Scan for error codes.
