What the ****!?!?
Ok, yesterday I drove my car and it sounded like it was going to die on me. So I got to school, moved the timeing which helped a little but not much. It would bog down and backfire and make all kinds of comotion. Now this morning, it was about 30 degrees out and it ran like a champ. Idleing good, very little hesitation, and stayed that way all the way to school.
I am kinda thinking that it may be running rich because isn't cold air denser and creat a better charge? I could just be talking out my a$$. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
Dan

I hope you know which of your listed cars is doing this because I don't.
You might want to check out your MAF and TPS if it's your Iroc.

Lol! You don't? What the hell is wrong with you? Isn't it obvious?
THat sounds like it could definitely be the TPS - altho I don't like how it just kind of stopped the next day.
