Subject: Re: '94 LT1 dies out... by screamin_conure on 2011/9/9 18:35:51 Another quick update... The car's owner replaced the coil-to-Opti wire the other day. The car started and ran, but died again. However, he claimed that it ran much longer before it died. Before, temp would get to about 195 degrees when it would die, almost without fail. This time, the car idled a bit longer and got hotter before it died. He let it sit for a few minutes and it restarted with no problems. This time, however, he let the car sit for about 30 minutes and it DID NOT DIE OUT. Temp went well into the 220-230 degree range. He even blipped the throttle a number of times during this period and the car continued to run. I was on the phone with him during most of this time and I could hear the car idling in the background. Sounded good. I was urging him to take it out and drive it, but he was short on time. Haven't talked to him since, but I'm planning to head over to his house again today after work to do a resistance reading on his injectors and to try the paperclip trick to check for codes (thanks again Bill!). I'm thinking we MAY have found the issue. I'll update again later. Ron |
