Turned out to be a variety of issues. The opti was completely corroded inside. And the spark plug wire OHMs where way off. i dont think the wires where right for the car. they where way to long.

i was forced to take it to a shop. I have another thread all about that. I think the shop had a really hard time diagnosing my car, and ended up only charging me for parts and minimal labor. I got luuuuuuuuuuuuuuucky.

And another one bites the dust! Gotta love that optispark technology
Funny how people on this forum get bent out of shape if somebody blames the opti....especially the ones still on their original GM unit by some miracle. I'm on opti number 3 now after 14 years. Bottom line...the opti IS the LT1's biggest weakness and should be one of the first things to troubleshoot.
