Arking wire maybe? Who ran the plugs wires?

Try www.camaroZ28.com in their "LT1 Tech" section. There is a LOT more LT1 info over there. Good luck

Some of your information must be wrong.....93's don t even have a crank sensor so how was it changed three times?

The 93 opti is different from later versions and so is the coil and module......

They can be retrofitted with newer parts but the wiring needs to hacked......so that could be an issue if it was done.....I dealt with one that had a similar problem for that reason.....the gm techs messed it up....

Default help with a 93 lt1

this is what it's doing,very hard to crank, if it does run its bam pop crack,you have to pat the gas to the floor then off to keep it running.will not idel has 3 new crank triggers ,1new coil, new fuel pump wires etc sets a code 41 but had a new distribter put in . sounds like it jumped time, the car was running fine, parked over night then it started all of this. and no it was not drove in water, is it 1/2 of the brain gone bad? help michael
