92 camaro v6 running terrible
My 92 has started running pretty crappy about a week ago. When I am driving, it starts sputtering but only when you press on the gas (btw its a manual). When just crusing in a gear, it doesnt do it. Only when you press the gas. I dont get it. Also sometimes when the engine warms up, it doesnt do it. Help please!

However, I'm going to assume that they require fuel, just like the engines I AM familiar with, and that the symptoms of inadequate fuel (running lean) would be just about the same. Which sounds like what you've got going on.
Try a new fuel filter. If that doesn't fix it, get some fuel pressure readings, WHILE IT'S SCREWING UP; that is, while driving down the road and exhibiting the symptom, NOT while sitting in the driveway idling.
