Default "HELP"around waynesville,mo

is there someone on here that is near the waynesville,mo area that know alot about the 00 firebird ws6 ls1 just bourght it and alot of trouble with it and need someone to look at it, to see they might some idea whats wrong with it. it runs and drives but when you start it up the idle will shot up to 2000rpms for about 10 to 40 sec and then back down, it will do it when you come to a stop light too. and when you are driving it and start to drive down the road its let it bogs down you can have your foot halfway down on the gas and will not go very fast then it will kick in its like a power band kicks in then it will drive.

any change with the new parts? can you check for any stored codes? even if the check engine light is off, codes may still be present
