Symptom #1 - Extreemly long cranking times. 60 to 500 seconds is usualy what it takes to get it to fire up. (I have a HUGH car stereo, and thus a HUGE car battery that can handle this extreem drain---and so far my starter has not show any signs of dammage).
it bogs down when you hit the gas pedal. when in drive or neutral engine wi9ll rev when accellerator is pushed if u put it in drive it will just choke out or just cut off

When you turn the key to start-all idiot lights light up and car starts. Ran great. Take it out of park and car would shut off. Just as if you turned it off. Go to start it again--it would crank but won't start. The check engine light comes and goes as it wants . now the only way to get it to run is to put gas straight into the fuel intake as soon as u stop putting gas in it dies, checked the fuel pressure and it was at 40 psi key on engine off. i'm running out of ideas people tell me the injectors
(the car is not driveable this way).:banghead:



swapped out the fuel filter, no difference at all.
swapped out the tps sensor, idol air control mod, egr valve
new exhaust, new distributor, new plugs, and wires, new coil, new ignition mod any help is appreciated

Try to do a KOER test to see if any codes come up. You can test the injectors with a cylinder balance test or a noid light.

Check for exhaust restriction. Code on mine was 43 -egr restriction.the exhaust would not let the car run.Made my transmission act up.No power when you are pulling a hill. I replaced the Egr and still had code 43. Replaced the exhaust Code gone, my exhaust was origanal 125,000 miles

TFI module that goes onto the base of the distributor can cause issues like this. There was a recall for this in the early ninties.
