1998 Camaro Z28 Engine Stall

Alright so this recently started happening after I went through an automatic carwash. At first it was just a bogging right afterwords, thought something was happening, downshifted the car and it stopped so I thought I solved it. Then it started getting worse. Was running badly and I stopped at a light and my car was downhill, car stalls out. Try and crank it again, and it needed a little gas to start it. Pulled over on a flat surface and it ran normal. Stalled out again later on a downhill incline.

So I finally got it home, thought it might be the fuel filter pulled it, and it had a terrible flow, so I replaced it with a new one. Started it up, ran fine. Then started driving it around again and ran good for approximately 2 minutes and then it started acting up again. Now it's sitting at my house.

When I turn the key to the on position, I do hear the fuel pump engage. Recent work I've had is a complete engine rebuild (rods/bearings/crank), and I had my tranny rebuilt (4l60e).

Some other things I noticed is the fuel pressure has been a tad lower and my oil does need to be changed. The motor was shaking but it stops.

Any other questions just ask. Thank you!

Check your MAF sensor, it could be dirty or going bad. This also helps your engine to calculate the proper air/fuel mixture
