I have a strange issue with my 92RS. I mostly just drive my car to work and it pretty much sits in my drive-way over the weekend. My drive to work is about 15 minutes. When I get about half-way to work on Monday morning the car starts acting funny. In first and second gear the car will start cutting out if I don't keep my RPM's up. If I come off the clutch like normal the car will start to cut and I have to throw the clutch back in and rev it up good. It will do this the rest of the way to work. When I leave that evening the car will drive good and it drives great the rest of the week. If I let the car run for about 20 minutes on Sunday evening I don't have this problem. The fuel pump and filter have been replaced recently so I know that those aren't the cause. If anyone could give me some idea as to what might be causing this problem I would appreciate it.

get a paper clip under dash driver side close to hood release there a black plugin the top two right holes take paper clip shape in a U plug in to those two holes .After this is done turn key to on not starting service engine will blink 1 blink 2 blinks it will do this three times then it will blink out your code. For example 3 blinks then 6 blinks this is a code 36. After your code is given call autozone tell them your code they will have answer. For anyone else this works upto a 94 gm they changed it too many people not going to them.

flashing should only work on F-bodies up to 92, 93 was an OBDI/II system, and 94 and up is OBDII which requires a TECH2 scanner.

I know how to check my codes which I have done quite a few times to get to the bottom of this problem. No codes are being set.
