1991 camaro v6 3.1 surging problem
Hello all im brand new to this forum as a member but have been floating around as a nonmember for awhile now and i have a problem that i believe needs to be addressed sooner than later
To start off let me describe my car its a 1991 camaro rs 3.1 v6 with 90,xxx original miles i bought her about 6 months ago and have loved every minute of owning this car
My problem im having with the car is for some reason some times when im driving at any speed the speedometer drops then begins to jump around which doesnt really bother me what does bother me is that while it does this i feel a loss in power and the car begins to surge
i would appreciate any advice that is givin to me its not running rough enough to consern me to bad with it but i would rather have her running better than worse

Check engine light? Trouble codes? Checked wires and connection at speed sensor? Lots of things come to mind.

Re: 1991 camaro v6 3.1 surging problem
Code 32 is for EGR, I looked at it in my Mitchel 1 system and it says you can have a digital EGR valve or a NON-digital valve. Tests are different for both. I am not familiar with the two. If you can find out which one you have I can try to help more. I don't believe it would involve the speedo but if you have a code for EGR, I always say fix the obvious first.

i do beleive that code is because of an exhaust leak that i have on my manifold im thinking that maybe im putting to much stress on my electrical system but im not 100% sure and ive looked and havnt seen anyothers with this problem
