I just want to burn it to the ground.

[TURBOPOWERED68]

So i took it out for my sunday run and life WAS good.
Then about after about an hour and a half into the drive i come to a quick stop and the pos turns off.
I turn it back ON and it turns off again.
I turn it back ON but this time i blip the throttle and it stays on then turns off again
i turn it back on and keep my foot on the throttle and it stays on and drives fine. But once you let go of the throttle it stumbles and stumbles until it cuts out.
IAC or vacuum leak or "FOR SALE" sign?
But damn i just got it running

Could be IAC. Fuel pressure? Could be a fuel pump going out or a clogged fuel filter. What does your powerlogger show? I have a love/hate relationship with mine as well...

By now you should have a hate / hate relationship with yours.

I'll never get what its worth but i'll part it.


Going to give it look on Wednesday and try and find WTH is the problem this time.
If work turns around you best believe the LC2 will end up in a corner of the garage collecting lots of dust.

No need to give up it's just a car. You just need to find out what is causing the problem and you will be able to enjoy the car as it's intended to be.

Not saying it's going to be easy and that it won't test your patience.

For me electrical problems are the worse nightmare but i manage to overcome them with my limited abilities/knowledge. The car is only so big and i will take every darn thing apart piece by piece until i find what the problem is.

What's the wideband O2 read when keeping it running and what's it do when starting to die and stall?

 

[BARRACUDA1968]

MAF sensor?

 

[87geeinn]

x2 on the MAF as likely culprit.

[TURBOPOWERED68]

I'll look at the MAF numbers, it does have a LS1 with translater

Check connections at the ecm.

 

[TURBOPOWERED68]

Whoever said the MAF is the winner.
MAF reading at idle is between 13 and 22
This is an LS1 MAF with the translater
