If it aint one thing...........

This shiz fudged up!!

OK, drove bird to Plain City (about an hr out) To swap out parts. Did the egr solinoid thing & ecm swap. It ran so smooooooooth after that, it was awesome. No more escape smoke screen when flooring the gas. Went over to Marysville & finally got me the rear fold down seat, along w/new butt seats (pics soon, traded the 3.4 intake stuff for it).

1. ON the way back down, about 1/2 home in bfe, it jsut stalls out while going 65. I pull over, try to crank it once. no sart. Crank again, it sarts. I put it in drive & go all the way home. About 120+ miles today . Anywho, going to DQ to pick up some goods, I piull out of the drive thru, cut across the street & the damn thing stalls out AGAIN!!!!!! .

Crank & crank & crank & nothing. I pop the hood, avoid becoming a statistic & check battery conections, etc & I hear this clicking sound. Sounds electrical coming from injectors. Dude on bike stps to help, he hears the clicking too, kinda sccares him .

Eventually I can start it, but only keep it running w/foot on gas. Stranger closes hood & I start back home, putng in nuetral @ lights & stop signs. It also stars running rough & smoking a little Code 34. Guess I should've also swapped MAFs & MAF relays while I was at it.


**Good news though**

The rear seats I got were from a 93 camaro, darker gray than my front seats w/black trim. IT didn't really line up right like the old seat back, so I stripped both down & put new covering on old seat frame. It works, some open mounting holes, but it works. pics soon.

Same prob here. Disconnect the MAF and it will run just fine.
