Help..Car keeps dying..floods out.
I had changed out all eight fuel injectors about 2 years ago due to they were bad, due to the car being stored so long. It has been noticeable over the past 2 years that the car ran rich or was getting to much gas, poor gas mileage (and I mean poor,like 10mph) now the car floods out. Traveling at 70 mph and the car starts to choke and not respond to when you step on the gas, it doesn't respond it just begins to slow down and than dies. I have to sit for a bit , get the car started again than makes it about a 1 mile down the road, than dies all over again several times.
What do you think? The fuel injectors again? Not properly tuned after the install? Or fuel pump? I don't think it is the fuel pump due to it started right back up but who knows?
Your thoughts? UGH!!!!!

Borrow a laptop from a friend, download Tuner Pro RT, and either buy or build an ALDL cable. You can drive the car and see whats going on with all your sensors. It'll really help to see whats going on.
