Default New but yet very interesting problem.

Ok this is kind of funny. I'm driving around town and my car is running just fine. I stop at a red light and when it turns green I start to move until my car just sort of dies in 1st gear. I press in on the clutch rev up a little and the problem went away until it did it again in 2nd gear so I repeated the same process. I tried pressing down on the gas pedal but the car showed no reaction (no gain in rpms, no speed, nothing). No problem with 3rd gear or higher. I come up to the next light and I'm like "here we go again" but it didn't happen. This is not a consistant problem. It happens maybe one out of 10 times I have to stop. What's causing this?

sounds like your car is loading up on fuel... Ditch that blue box garbage, buy some bigger injectors (I have some 440's for sale ) and get something better that you can actually tune with... Uberdata will work fine, and I will tune it for ya cheap

i had the same problem, after I had the car tuned it was fine, so I think it was my ari/fuel ratio.

I never thought about the overload on fuel.....I thought I was acutally running lean if anything (really need to put in my a/f gauge). Hit me up on a price for those injectors Chris. I'll be ready for a tune in about a month or two.....finances own me right now.
