Re: Cuts Out when Floored

Could be, bad injectors, plugged fuel filter, bad fuel pump, bad plug wires, bad plugs......

Bad distributor, bad coil, bad cap or rotor....

Try the fuel filter first, then do a pressure test and see what your fuel pump is doing.

I had an '88 that did the same thing, though it had the pathetic 2.8L. It turned out to be the MAS

hey i had the same problem not to long ago and posted this:

I have a 91 firebird 3.1 v6. Ive had a problem where when i accelerate hard it would cut out and wouldnt come back until i let off the accelerator and pushed it down again or sometimes the car would just cut out and shut off when i floored it.So ive had this problem for about 5 months now and its been getting worse and worse until the other night when i was driving I accelerated and it died and when i started it back up it would idle but die as soon as i gave it gas even if it was in netrual.So i had it towed to goodyear and the next day they said it wouldnt start for them and they think the timing is off and it needs a new timing chain and it would be around 500 dollars.So i towed it back to my house to see if the problem might be something else before giving them 500 dollars to fix the timing chain.The car will crank but wont start. In the past month I have replaced the Spark plugs, spark plug wires, distributor cap, rotor, PCV valve, air filter, oil filter, transmission filter, fuel filter, fuel pump, fuel pump relay, throttle position sensor (TPS), Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor (MAP sensor) and the Ignition coil.

If any one has any ides PLEASE HELP!



I finally took it to some guy who fixed it he said it was the ignition control module, but the PROM in the ECM also wasn't in all the way either. It was fine for like a week after that,but now im having the problem again.
