Running Like Crap
Running Like Crap My 1993 z28 is due for a few things. I know i need to put new o2 sensors in but im starting to wonder maybe plugs to. See for the past 2 weeks id say she's been acting tempermental. Like i raced my buddy cutlass thats been built up a lil bit she didnt even spin the tires racing him from a dead stop wth i mean i still beat him by about a car or so. Now when i mash it from a dead stop itll spin but not much. My z28 has 149k miles on it an 60k on the motor which has been rebuilt. It even has a chip in it made by fastchip why is it doing this help me out or is it maybe just me. I mean ive had those days when it seems she's running top notch like no other then other days i feel my friends 01 eclipse would eat it. Could faulty o2 sensors really cause it to run this bad help me out

it just recently had an oil change but nothing else far as i know. She's started to boug off the line an stuff but imean the motor was recently rebuilt like 2or 3yrs ago
oh an the service light came on. So i took it to autozone an had them check the code, it came up as code 31 an 62 or 32 an 61 either way it was an egr computor malfunction an faulty oxygen sensor. Either way since then my cars just feels slow an powerless. but my egr has been removed or blocked off anyways

Verdad Gallardo I havent had this car but like 2 months or so now an well. i just dont know . I mean she has power but i either cant belive shes been able to hook up or shes powerless anymore. We went down a freshly paved road omg this road would of made you cry it was so nicely done. we lined up i took off i didnt even spin wth. Could it be that just because im getting use to my car it doesnt excite or scare me as much as it use to. I mean i know what o2 sensors do but could the really cause my car to slow down so much. I should be happy i beat my friends car but its not running well i dont think

It has a chip, by fastchips in it, and a bm 6 speed short shift in it witha hurst handle thats all i know. I just dropped it off at the garage in town hopefully they get those old o2s out an maybe it'll be good agian.
they couldt pull the o2 sensor on the passenger side it to close to the manifold bolt up to the exhuast pipe.but the garage i took it to didnt have a thin wall enough socket to get to that o2 so im gonna take it to the chevy garage soon
