Ok This Is Wierd

I Start To Drive My 78 And No Mater What Gear Its In She Some Times Shudders And Has No Power. Its Almost Acting Like Its Stalling And Almost Shuts Down. I Have To Nurse The Pedal Just To Get It To Move.

It Only Does This Some Times So What I Have Done To Try To Fix It Is Diconnect The Tps And Still Its Possesed...

Any Ideas?

 

AFM... CHTS... TPS... Timing... Clogged fuel injector... etc etc etc

 

FUSEABLE LINK, killing power!! HAd it happen!

 

Z gremlins........












sorry, sugah. i just could not help myself!!!!!!!

 

yeah i would upgrade to ms right now but i just bought a truck so no mula. I'll test the afm and the tps again injectors should be good. i'll recheck the links one might be bad.

 

gremlins are back again nooooooo..... i got a almost brand new rad from a junk yard exceptionally clean. Dropped here in and cools like a dream. Well after that my fuse blew for my lights, so I change the fuse and then my headlight switch goes out go figure.

ok my new problem other than that is my fan keeps going into the rad. even thought the rad is not moving at all now. and when she does drive the tach is all over the place. its bouncing like Anna Nichole Smith on speed. any ideas guys?

 

Sounds like the rad support has been tweeked. We need pics boy!

 

will do and i'll try to get some vids of it running

 

fix the stumbling problem? this sounds like my 82 when i drove it for fun, it had no FPR... so yah might want to investigate that. also, you can always upgrade to an electric fan then problems are solved and youll get a lil more powa!

 

here are the pics.. the video is way to big to put on here.

 

yeah i'll prob take this rad to the junk yard cause it to now has a hole in it due to the fan.. i'll get an electric fan for now and just toss it on the zx rad. I can get a working one out of a 88 camero.

 

I'll do some measurements tonight & find out where the rad should be sitting... then you can measure yours.

 

k thanks more than likely i'll just get an electric one the fan thats in it wobbles a little bit but its still not that close to the rad... hmmm wierd.

 

well i did a temp fix for now. i put the camero electric fan on the outside to make it a pusher fan. I took off the a/c condensor so there is more room. To mount it I had to use some ZIP ties to hold it down. I then ran some wires to inside the cabin so I can turn it on and off as needed.
