OK so my next new dilemma. I drive a 1990 Pontiac Bonneville. lately it has been having some issues. Mind you, this is an off and on thing. When I start the car rough (taking more than 5 seconds to crank), then it runs rough. Shut the car off, let it sit for awhile, and then start it again(lets say it starts within 2 seconds), and it runs just fine. So when it does run rough, if you are stopped, in park, the car idles below 500 RPM, which is 500 RPM, well, too low. When going any speed over 25 or so, and take your foot off the gas, the cars idle bounces between 550 and 900 RPM, give or take. The service light is on and i have also came up with 2 errors, Torque Converter Clutch error, and Cam sensor error. I have tested the fuel pressure and it is normal. I have replaced the Cam sensor and that has done nothing. I put some Sea Foam Trans Tube in the tranny, to try to free up any TCC solenoids, and still nothing. I've wiggled every single wire and connector, and unplugged the battery to try to reset the ECM, still nothing. The car has a new starter too, btw. And when it does start rough, which is about all the time, you get a very bad exhaust/gas smell. I believe that this is a separate issue that needs fixed, as well.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, I don't have a ton of money to shell out on a mechanic. (Don't we all?)



Thanks,
Tanner
