Re: Camaro start to fail..!

So all of this happened after you changed your injectors? Make sure they're seated properly and you reattached all of the vacuum lines attached to the upper intake.

Check your coil, wires, and plugs.

Re: Camaro start to fail..!

Did you set your timing after installing the distributor?
And both of you need to do an idle relearn if you ever get to the point where your vehicle actually stays running...
