1993 Lumina wont run right!!
My daughter has a 1993 Chevy Lumina that will start right up and run fine until the motor starts to warm up. Then it misses and runs like crap. Can anyon give us an idea of what might be the problem?

Welcome to AF, many things can cause this, your symptoms are too general someone has to check this out on site, "runs like crap" won't cut it.

Re: 1993 Lumina wont run right!!
This car runs good while the engine is cool but when it warms up it misses real bad and idles rough. It has no power at this point. After letting the car sit overnight it starts right back up and then after about 10 minutes it starts running rough again. Someone said something about power pack?? I dont know much about cars so I was hoping someone could give me an opinion. Thank You

I would have the fuel pressure tested first.

Re: 1993 Lumina wont run right!!
the three most common causes of your symptoms are low fuel pressure, the crank position sensor, and the ignition module. They are all caused by the electircal windings they contain heating up, then shorting out and malfunctioning until they cool down again, only to repeat the cycle.
