Help 95 chevy camaro
I have a 1995 chevy camaro with a lt1 with a 6 speed. it just started missing and doesn't have the power anymore like it had the torque anymore you can't use 6th anymore it jumps everywhere the gearshift shakes and the car jumps around and it wont get up to speed anymore. I replaced the distributor coil wires and plugs. Noticed i had oil on one of the plugs could it cause something any ideas

Depending on how many miles are on the engine and how long the plugs were in it could be normal wear. However, I would start with the Opti spark system as those were problems on the LT1 cars.

If it is oil on the plug, I would look at pulling the valve covers and visually inspecting the valve stem seals. If it is gas (and a little grease/oil from the block), I would clean that plug and swap injectors with another cylinder. Pick the easiest one to get at the plug and see if that one fouls. If so, dirty injector, clean/replace as needed.
It is not clear from your post if you replaced the Opti, wires, coil, and plugs before or after your problem started. If you started having trouble after the work/parts, then it is waaay likely you did something wrong. Backtrack and find it before messing with pulling the covers or injector(s).

the number 7 cylinder when you pull injecter plug there is no rpm drop what so ever no change in pitch all others change in pitch and change rpm has good spark and i replaced the fuel injector on that cylinder still does the same though. It does good for a little bit down the road then it starts stumbling gear shift shakes and car does it doesn't have the power for the sixth gear still clueless need some help.
