86 Z, bogging.... what gives???
New Guy from Arizona.
Here's my issue:
After my 5.0 TPI hits running temperature, the car bogs down while in gear and bogs down when you try to excelerate. Acts like its bogging or chocking. Just seem to gargle. When I release the pedal the car seems to recover. It's driving me crazy to say the least.
Recent replacement parts since Jan09 Filter pump, fuel filter, MAF, replaced the ECM today and was hoping we had it nip, and no....... same old crap.
Picked up the car in Jan09 and ran fantastic for a few weeks then it started giving me issues. I've read thru most of this site and others and pretty much am disgusted at the moment.
Any idea what may be my issue? Cat may?

sounds like a bad o2 sensor.
runs fine when in open loop (start up) when its not taking info from the sensors. then when it switches into closed loop at operating temp the readings from the o2 sensors are throwing the a/f off.
