engine running ruff. on side of road
I have a 89 camaro 305 tbi that starts but you have to repeatedly hit the throtle to keep running. I got good fuel pressure and can see the injectors spraying good. No vacum leaks. Please help im on side of road. It keeps stalling out

Egr valve might be stuck open. Remove it & make sure it isn't open or getting vacuum at idle.
