as far as your problem, you need to give some more info so someone can help you i.e- engine size, year, induction system etc...

As others have mentioned, try typing without using all CAPITAL letters, easier on the eyes.
Have you probed the ECM for codes? Info in Tech Central on the main page.

i have checked the codes and one time it came up with a code 44 and then it went away and now the only thing that comes up is code 12.where is the coolant temp sensor at.could it be the ECM or the fuel injectors?

You'd have to convert it to a carb setup in order to remove all the electronic-****.
I'd test the exhaust for restrictions, test the CTS and test the MAP sensor to start.
