car not running right

Ok, here is the deal, I am from missouri and just moved out here to wyoming to go to school, my 1994 trans am doesn't seem to run as good as it did back home. It runs fine but the power doesn't seem to be there, Is it just because I am up in the higher altitudes? That is my guess. any suggestions?

Very possible. Altitude has a tremendous affect on power. Easiest way to find out is to go to an area with a significantly lower elevation and see if the power picks up.

yes i believe that this is the problem as well. that is why GM will use different programs depending on where the car is being shiped which will compensate for some of that issues.
