ok i have a 89 camaro rs with a 2.8 v6. it takes forever to start! but when it gets started i go to give it gas and it just bogs out and dies! i have no idea what the problem is. i really need help on this cuz this is my only way ot transportation to and from work.

 

Fuel filter plugged. Fuel pump going out. Problem in fuel pump electrical circuit.

 

Check engine light on?

 

ok yes the check engine light is on. i replaced the fuelfilter and the tps sensor. the fuel pump turns on and works to.i cleaned the mas air flow sensor and it wil turn over and try to start but it wont run. i took off the oil pressure sensor and it was covered in oil. i have no idea what is wrong with the car. and nobody seems to no what to do. including me. so if anyone can help me out and give me ideas of what they think or what to check it would be a really big help.

 

Probably a combo of things, did u pull your codeS by jumping pins a and b on the aldl? Get us the codes and well go from
there.

 

Common issue with your info would be plugged cat or a jumped timing chain. If you put a timing light onthe engineand you timing is way out its the chain. To check the cat you need a pressure gage that will screw in where the O2 sensor goes. Try to start it. If its over 2 PSI its a problem. Most likely if it causing a no start it will show 10 psi.becarful I had a gage that read up to 20 psi and I was working on a 89 350. It blew the gage apart in my hand. I got a nasty cut

If it is the Cat it most likely was caused by something like a TPS that was causing the car to run rich.

Good luck.

 

i wanna thank you guys for the help. it turns out it was my ignition coil. pretty messed up huh. all the rebuilds and money spent just to find out its a 20.00 dollar part. thank u guys for givin me ideas of what was wrong tho u were all a big help.
