Alright guys I was sent up to great lakes to instruct on the military base. While I was gone buddy took my vette out ( with permission ) and he went to take a corner and the vette died (sputtered out).
The skinny is I have a 1996 LT1 auto, LE2 package with support mods and a mail order tune. I am running really rich. The full mod list is in my profile.
Im home now and I tried to start it and it wont kick over. It sputters after I let off the igition and floor the pedal. I smell alot of fuel after my attemps.
Things I tested coil is good ( swapped with my original good working order one) I swapped a computer from my dads 1996 in and made no difference (computer good), Put brand new plugs in ( Autolite 104 gapped to 30) checked firing order still good, Opti is original (but no issues with 48000 on the clock) Engine install got a new fuel filter (should be fine) MAF is original.
Im getting sputtering so I think Im getting spark. But my mind is still on opti. I did put a 255 pump in but I think its fine cause I smell fuel and I tested pressure at the rails and I have fuel there. The injectors are used so they could be in question.
So my mind is on:
Opti
255 pump
Injectors
MAF
Seems like no air cause when I hold the pedal down it sputters. When I dont hit the pedal it just cranks. Need some ideas or something to check. Certain fuses I should check or relays? As soon as it fires up it is going to get flat bedded to get tuned. I dont want it to get to a shop broke and have them fix something I could do. HHHHEEEELPPPPP
