HELP: Engine is bogging. What is wrong?
Im not sure which forum to post this in so I'm posting it in here and in the tech forum also. The more help I have the sooner I can fix this. Thanks
I have a 1991 Trans Am with a 350 TPI engine with 95,000 miles. The car is currently in the tranny shop cause it was bogging and I thought it was a tranny problem but they say its a motor problem. Nothing wrong with the tranny.
Ok here is what its doing. When the car is cold or has sat for 2-3 hours when I get in it and drive as soon as it shifts in 2nd it bogs down, when it shifts into 3rd it bogs down even more but 4th is ok and once it warms up it is ok. If I manually shift it holding it to higher rpm's it shifts fine and doesnt bog.
What could be my problem?
Could it be the Cold Idle Air sinsor or could it be clogged injectors?
