Default Beautiful camaro problems please help

I drive thru town and its a beast but when I get on the highway it bogg's down I cant give it no gas almost feels like it shuts down at 75mph, I hit 75 and it shuts down and picks right back up till 75 then same thing ....some say its your fuel filter , Im like no i would know that, some say computer I still question that

Also my timing!! Would that have anything to do with this problem ? just my guess ! its a 1991 Camaro RS with a 350

could very well be a weak pump? or a dirty filter like you were told? or a clog somewhere? either way try blowing out your lines then the filter first its the cheapest.

if it was your timing i think it would happen allot sooner than 75mph, being that i really think it has to do with your fuel source.

a buddy of mine had a problem with his gearing out at 75 because the lsd was spider welded together to kinda be posi, but if yours is bogging not like running out of gear id def say fuel or air system is to blame

This thread is a duplicate of the same question asked elsewhere. 1991, spreading the same question around makes it harder to head in the right direction for a fix.
This one is the "mother ship": https://camaroforums.com/forum/showt...t=50789&page=4

well i replaced the fuel filter,, Its was some what clogged compared to a new one, so I threw it on and its getting gas flow, I feel a difference now really halls a s s but same problem occurs....

Should i get aftermarket Tach ?

Same with Transmission ?
