Driveability Problems
My car is having some problems and I cant figure out what is causing them. The car will stall after you start it if you dont give it gas for a little bit but after that it will run better. When I drive the car, it is extremly sluggish. The T.V. Cable is misadjusted but im not sure if that it causing all of the driving problems. Also everynow and then it will have blue smoke on start up, but I cant figure out what is causing it since the motor has brand new valve seals in it. It is a 305 TPI automatic, and has a comp cams 260/260 .444.444 cam in it. What should I look into?

Maybe a little leak down from an injector, Kinda like its flooded when you try to start it up.

Re: Driveability Problems
Could my problem be that I need to get the computer reprogrammed because of the cam?

I would think the tech's at comp cams would be the best ones to ask about reprogramming or not. They are usually really helpful about that kinda stuff.

Re: Driveability Problems
Another thing that I noticed is that you can hear the fuel pump running (whinning) from the back of the car while the car itself is running. Is it normal for it to run that loud?
