3 years now and still got the same issue(someone gotta know this)
3 years now and still got the same issue(someone gotta know this)
So since i ve installed my LT4 motor 3 years ago i came accross a lot of small problem but with the help of a lot of member i ve manage to clear them up except for this bad one.I miss some time to work on it last year but last week i finnally installed my ltcc(working great) and its now the time to clear the last problem.
So when im at a red light or a stop and i wanna go, the car hesitate,burp,shake,advance slowly and suddenly the power came back.Same thing when im crusing(no matter what gear im using).Ex: im at 60mph and around 2000rpm no too much throttle,the car hesitate,burp,shake.If i give it some throttle or slam it,it will still hesitate shake but suddenly the power come back and the car pull really hard even at 12.3 afr to 6500rpm(rev limiter).
The car start perfectly.
So i ve change:
-5 opti(2 no name for test,1 gm ,2 msd)
-opti harness
-couple set of plugs
-couple sets of wire
-Delteg
-LTCC (will stay on the car)
-maf harness
-maf
-o2 sensors
and a lot more
So any idea on what should i look at ,test.
Thanks
Eric

Today i changed my fuel filter and also check my fuel pressure.Everything is fine.
I also made a log when im going from a red light and its bucking like hell.The log is not looking good at all.I can send it to anyone how would like to see it.
And it also give me two dtc code error:
MALF 42: EST Grounded
MALF 51: EPROM/Flash Checksum Fail
DTC 42, which can be caused by:
-faulty connection on the white wire from the PCM to the ICM
-grounded IC circuit between PCM and ICM
-faulty ICM
-faulty circuit on various connections to the ICM
-faulty PCM
I got a ltcc so no more icm and the white wire is connected to the ltcc box
So what does this mean
Thanks

i had 42 and 51 and changed my ignition system and everything is great now. dtc51 i hear is a fatal error but it could possibly be caused by a bad ground somewhere. Check all of your grounds. Is there anyway you could switch back to the factory setup and see if it still does it? also, any burnt wires anywhere??

And dont wanna sound stupid but where are the ground point(cant remember correclty):
-There is one on the driver side between the driver head and chassis
