ok guys todayi noticed the car was stumbling down the road, when i hit the gas it would stumble. LIke almost stlall then get back on the rpm...


But now i just replaced my fuse and noticed the tank was like completly empty. but i just drove the car home...


What did i do guy?


The fuel pump still primes, but could it not be pressuriing as muhc as it should or what?


Why me, oh *** why me?

megaracerx

damn dude...you post a new problem every day

not to laugh...i know how you feel..trust me

therckid

its not fn funny man.. it really isn't.... and i think these problems i've been having are all linking to this......



I am pretty sure its fuel related..... but i just dont know.....


I mean the darn thing wants to go past 5k wheni hit it, but onceit gets there its like, whammo, theres nothing left..... i just dont get it....

Your car is going to blow up.

REALPOWER

Check the tranny fluid. Check the linkage.

If it is good, get a gas can and a match, or find a nearby cliff to roll your car off, cause your tranny is fried.

REALPOWER

SHANE SHANE, I found your next car!!! Heck with that stupid firebird....

therckid

lol its not the trnany you dummy, i just drove the darn thing home and as soon as i got in the drive way i turned the car off. I replaced the fuse that was messed up and now, it wont rev high at all.... its gotta be fuel related.... After i added fuel when i saw it was empty it did the same damn darn thing so.... i have't the slightest clue d00d...




Shane

Oh, sorry. I'll save that comment for a future post, when your 700r-4 really does kick the bucket.

Why do you start a stupid thread, with absolutely no chance of accomplishing anything, and then call someone a dummy? This is the third time you have called someone a name when you started a stupid thread. I hope you get put on probation for it. What the hell is wrong with you?

Stekman

Shane, I will give you a cookie if you can make one thread without a spelling error.

I will give you 2 cookies if you can go an entire 24 hours without posting some bull**** stupid thread that is becoming annoyingly reduntant.

I will give you a package of cookies if you actually fix one of your own problems without making one of these bull**** stupid threads that is becoming annoyingly redundant.

Want a cookie?

copperhead110

will it rev higher if you work the throttle from under the hood. (ie check the linkage)

Is it cutting out at high revs?

Does a clogged fuel filter appear to be a possibility?

A more detailed description might help.

kretos

replace your fuel filter, or one of your injectors might be clogged.

oh and also check your tranny fluid anyways.

therckid

guys what the crap.... help me here....


my darn car idles at 450-600, maybe, and the when i hit the gas it takes forever to get all the way to 4k and wont go past that....


i'm beggin ya, please help me...

therckid

i check the tranny fluid, it looks nice and red, at the correct level...


Oh and another thing the car smells like gas everywhere, from the engine bay to the tail pipes all i smeel is gas..... what could it be, i pulled one plug whire and sat it next to a header tube it is firing on thatone ok...

therckid

the pump was replaced a month ago, i've onyl ran it out of gas once and that was a long long time ago....


fuel pump could be a possibility...

It stumbles thought the entire RPM rang. I mean once i hit the gas it seems, to like stip below then come back, but the RPMs climb very slowly, ill get a vid of it with my digital camera, however i have no sound with it, its very slow....

therckid

ok i got a vid but nowhere to host it, anyone got an idea?



But now that i went out there again, the car seems to be doing better, what could be the problem now it revs to 5k, and it'll get to 5600 but it takes a long but time....




Shane

kretos

ok you just posted 3 times to say the exact same thing, quit doing it.

you could of said all the in 1 post, or even edited it.


check your fuel filter, if your car is actually running its not your fuel pump. if the pump was fried your car wouldn't even start.


replace the fuel filter, it takes maybe 45 minutes and costs 10 bucks. go do it and then come back and post

REALPOWER

As much as I don't want to, I will try to help you. It smells rich, so it is not the fuel pump because the pump can run all the time with no ill-effects. Check to see if your MAF is unplugged, check to see if your 02 is unplugged, check to see the connections on your computer are OK, unplug the cold start injector, make sure there is no air in your lines by purging it with the key in the on position and pressing that bicycle like valve on your fuel rail, but look out cause it will blow gas all over the place, so do it when its cold.

One of those is probably the problem.

kretos

oh and why the hell are you revving your car to 5600?

theres no point its not gonna make it run any better

therckid

Couldn't be ignition huh?

Well when my dad gets home, with my money, i'm off the autozone for a cap and rotor and wires, been needing one.... A fuel filter, and gonna go chack the maf and that stuff right now bro, be back in a few to repost results....


hehe, there i treid to save a post, but it was too late....

therckid

...

kretos

it could be the coil, cap and rotor, hell it could be anything, we;ve just given you a bunch of good places to start looking. go and check them, then come and ask questions

therckid

well i check the MAF, its connected, i remmebrr one day i disconnected it, and it completely wouldn't start so thats not the major problem.... but....

i check oxygen sensors and its ok, computer still says its running lean but iunno....

I'll wait a while to perge the valve, while the motor cools down...

But air in ths system seems logical. Because i had the tank pretty much on empty and that would explain why it was sooo choppy..... iunno, i need a cap and rotor plus a fuel filter soon....



Thanks guys, i'll keep ya posted....


Shane

kretos

you checked the 02 sensor?

you need a voltmeter to do that

therckid

hmmmm a volt meter?


i just pulled ait out and looked at it pretty much made sure all the wire was still there.... how can i check the thing with a volt meter, what do i do?


but hmmm,.....i dunno what it could be, but i'll be replacing both the subject problems tomorow, or sunday or, monday.... hehe...

kretos

looking at it won't tell you if its working, and are you sure it was the o2 sensor you checked? cus pulling them out is one hell of a pita

therckid

it is? its the darn thing thats on my drivers side header right? the thing that is very well lubed becuase its like brand new, i put it in when i drove up here.... i sprayed WD40 in the socket and screwed it in, came out very easy.... so..... iunno... it was the stocker bosch one tho....

bulletboy29

Do you still have a cat? When was the last time you changed the fuel filter? Did you monkey with anything right before this happened?

kretos

actually a clogged catg makes about the most sense, i forgot all about that.

don't forget to replace your fuel filter

CaptPicardsZ28

Hey guys...i had a fly in da carr while i wass driving and i swadded it wit my hand and hitt the viser now it broke and wont go bak up iunno wht do i do?

Thanx guys. yew rockk!

Hmmm. read books, buy tools, stop talking about buying parts and buy them already. You could have a faulty pump but it sounds like the fuel filter is clogging up. Try replacing it (when the exhaust is cooled off). Do a search to find out how...

Wow... another day another problem. First off no need to spin the car that high.

Its one of two things. Fuel or spark... you check fuel pressure?

Is it cutting out at high RPMS or just not getting there?
