a little background on the car...
95 z28 LT1 110,000k miles STOCK motor. (all apearence)
the car sits in storage unit for like 1-2 weeks at a time. so i drove it like 3 days ago, ran fine and i parked it. went there today to move it out a little to wash the floor (oil stain) :rolleyes:
i sit in and crank it for like 10 seconds with NOTHING. so i turn the key off. now i have the fuel gauge on the a-piller. and it was/still reading 35-40 psi. and the pump was priming.
so i push the gas a little and crank it. fires right up but dies RIGHT away (8-10 times)
so i get mad and floor it, turn the key and the damn thing goes up to 3k rpm, i keep it there for like 10 seconds, but it was running VERY rough and LOUD. also ALOT of smoke (not black just normal gray and white) because it was 25* outside.
anyway after about 10 seconds of doing that i feel a jolt and in a second the car sounds and runs fine. i even let off the gas and let it sit for 10 mins while i did the floor. shut it off and re-started it like 5-6 times with no problem.
NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TOO.
im afraid to take the car out now lol ;)
FYI,........ very bad water pump leak last year. (about 10k miles ago though)
when i changed the pump the opti was all green and shyt from the anifreeze. but i think its the origional opti. (last owner said he never changed it)
