Re: car flooded by katrina

the PCM could be shot. You have a friend with an lt1/auto you can swap just to check?

Re: car flooded by katrina

its possible that the computer is full of water as they aren't completely sealed for submersion. pull the cover off and check that. if its wet its junk and will do all kinds of strange things.

Re: car flooded by katrina

The fuel pump comes on initally for startup, and then your fuel pump continues running unless your oil pressure switch stops it. Have you checked this connection?

If it starts fine, and dies every time like clockwork look into this. I've had to deal with this before, but it wasn't on an LT1.

Re: car flooded by katrina

If your '99 LS1 was flooded, what happened to your '94 LT1?
