Alright I'm new here and I've been reading a lot of topics about stalling in general on here and some things sound like my problem but none really fit. I have a 92 z34.
When it started out my car would warm up and then stall out. Turns out my valve cover gaskets were bad and leaking oil on my spark plugs and then they fouled my cat. So I canged out the gaskets, plugs, and wires. It would still warm up and stall out, so my buddie scaned it and it read nothing, which lead me to believe the cat was fouled. So I cut it out and put a straight pipe in there and it ran a lot better. I had thought I solved my problem, but now it just randomly stalls out. There was a time on the highway it tried to stall out, chugged, and at lower rpms it'll chug and sometimes shut off, or at idle just cut out. Some days it's fine others it's not. I put it in neutral and it'll fire right back up and be fine. The injectors are only a few years old, and to me it seems more like a short or something.
I'd really like to figure this out rather than take it to a mechanic and just paying them to put a bunch of new parts on it till it works right.
