  • Car runs like crap

    Any idea's anyone?

    I still have no acceleration! The car is balls less period! I don't know what to do anymore!

    I replaced IGN Module, Coils, Plugs, Fuel Injectors, Fuel tank, fuel pump, fuel filter.

    It is not popping up any codes. Only code that comes up is AIR Injection System because I don't have it on my car and I did OBDII swap.

    But I was dealing with poor acceleration even before OBDII swap.

          What are the symptoms of a clogged Cat?

            Hard start, rough idle, really hot engine/exhaust temps. There's a few more, I just have a brain fart right now.

                Sluggish car with no power as well, like it's being choked and can't breath because, well, it is.

                  Here is a WOT from a dead stop.

                  I think I am going to take the air filter off today to see if it runs any better because the air filter is pretty dirty. I may have another one laying around somewhere. I am pretty broke right now so can't buy a new one.

                  Here is another video of first starting the car. Then at the end you can see the exhaust shaking. Kind of hard to see it in the video.

                              Haha, I got a p0336. What crank sensor is that? I think that Gm forgot to connect it when they did the oil pan the other day. Please let me know so i can fix this tonight.
