I have a 99 camaro z28... the car has been doing this stuff where i'll turn it on and start driving , but then it'll basically start dying on me like the air flow is messed up.. i'll rev the engine and its just bogging down and seems like its chocking... it is just running like SH**.. i dont know if it could be an electrical problem, a fuel problem, or air flow problem.... It was raining really bad today and i do have an SSRA, so i dont want to say i sucked up water, but its possible could that be causing my problem.... the car seems to be lagging if that makes sense.... any input would be greatly appreciated....Thanks

 

first check for codes. I would change the fuel filter and check fuel pressure. read this http://www.ehow.com/facts_5183619_ba...-symptoms.html

 

With an SSRA in heavy rain I'd be checking to see if the filter is wet. It's pretty easy to scoop up water from a deep puddle and possibly ruin your motor. That's why they come with a block off plate to install just incase.

 

i found out that my car is throwing a code...P0300... it is saying that i have a random cylinder misfire... what could have cause this?... and what can i do to fix it? ive heard that it could be the coils, or even the camshaft position sensor, or crankshaft position sensor.. thanks for the help

 

ive also heard that it could be that the plugs are burt up...

 

A faulty HO2 sensor could cause this condition, but I would think that this would also throw a code.

 

i havent been running o2 sensors on my car for about a year now and this has never happened.....

 

Make sure the MAF and filter are dry. A wet MAF will do that.

yea ive checked the maf and airfilter they are dry....

 

You must run o2 sensors........

 

i did a test that showed that cylinder 6 & 8 were misfiring... and that i have a small exhaust leak above the header where the 8th cylinder is... could this possible be the problem?
