97 chev asto 80-90 knh shift
My van seems to run extremly rough only around 80-90 KM. If i step on the gas it is fine. There also is an ordour, not gas but similar to exhaust smell. It would almost seem as if trying to stall, jumpy like.
Any suggestions

Re: 97 chev asto 80-90 knh shift
a bit more information about your problem might help. Year model, engine, recent maintenance, a little more description of the odor.
My lower conversion skills are stunted at the moment, but I think 80-90 kmh is about 45 - 50 mph yes? Just about the speed the overdrive kicks in?

Re: 97 chev asto 80-90 knh shift
The first thing I think I'd do is check the exhaust system for holes. Touch every part that you can't see with your hands. A leaky exhaust is hazardous to your health.
You may have a partially blocked catalytic converter.

Hmmm...
One other thought. Check the EGR valve. An EGR gunked up with carbon will cause rough running. And If the gasket on the EGR is mush, you might be experiencing some exhaust leakage there.
