Default Tampa Bay Area Help Needed

Hey Guys,

I live in St. Pete, but I am looking for someone with tuning/scanning software that would be willing to help me out. I have a 97 Z28 LT1 and I am having a real bad stuttering/hesitation problem that is intermittent. It might be a vacuum leak, but I would really like to hook it up to a scanner while running at look at the data. I have had problems in the past with the car running very rich and I suspect it still may be doing that.Anybody in the area willing to help me out?

For tuning issues, yes def Jeramy F. He comes to the shop posted above as they have a dyno for him to use. but before you start tuning the car has to be right, these guys are tuners and not repair guys lol. What I mean is these guys you want spending their time and your money on tuning your car and not fixing issues that might not be related to a tuning issue.
