Default looking for some answers

I just bought a 95' camaro and dont know anything about it. It was running fine the first few weeks but now everything is going wrong. When i go to turn on the car and its ideling it wants to die and it seems like the engine is flooding. I was driving it around the day before and it was totally fine until later the night when i was driving it it was shuttering and when id go into 1st gear it would die. The service engine light would keep flashing to and all the gages were going haywire. Does anyone know whats wrong with it cuz i have no idea and im going to take it into the shop to see what they can do but i would like to know whats wrong with it...

Hey sry i dont know what to tell you about the car. But it is against the rules to post the same topic in more than one place. The moderators dont like it and consider it spamming. Dont worry the members read almost all posts nomatter were they are. They will see it. Just thought id let ya know before a moderator got on ya - josh

Alright judging by all yours electronics going haywire and the fact that when your in first it dies... it could be alternator. In first gear obviously ur at low rpms... idling rpms when you come to a stop. It could be the alternator isn't generating enough power for everything and therefore it just dies. Other than that, not enough information really to suggest anything else.
