Default Bottlebird's Junk At It AGAIN!

Ok, for the record, repairing melted wires in the harness DID NOT fix the camaro's issue

Holy crap, I'm pretty sure at this point some properly placed C4 is the best approach. Either that or put in on a post at the end of the shop's driveway, great advertising!

The specific wire that melted was one of the black o2 sensor wires on the pass side. Would that cause what you mentioned and how would we test for it?




And yes alex, the advertising value is probably the only reason the car is still around. All it does now is sit there and look pretty lol

test to make sure your getting 5 volts were you are supposed too. the black wire should be the return/output from the O2. if i remember right. so it May not have burnt a quad driver but maybe the input side for That O2.

Hmm, what are the chances it would throw a code for the o2 if that were the case? Still no cel's.
But, that being said, it is better, still sucks hairy ball bag, but at least it's not sweaty ball bag on top of the hair lol. Only pops occasionally on the throttle, almost nothing on decel. Still stumbles and breaks up pretty bad though.

Sounds ecu related if you had melted harness wires. what year is your car? 1995 right? i think kevin(klab) has the cable if you wanna get a junkyard ecm even a caprice 4.3 ecm is the same and i can flash the tune over for you.

Right? Couldn't help but laugh at the title myself lol.

And pizza, I have a couple lt1 pcm's floating around. One from a 94 and one from a 95. Both b body pcm's.
At this point I'll try anything. I was gonna throw a set of plugs at it and see what happens. It's not really backfiring anymore but it's still stumbling all over itself at anythig over like 1/8 throttle, until you floor it. Then it kinda clears up somewhat but still breaks up and is way down on power.
