Im beating a dead horse here. Im about to delete my damn car.

1995 Camaro RS w/ transplant:
1996 LT1/T-56
1994 Wire harnesses

I have pacesetter long tubes which have causes arching on #5 spark plug wire (driver side 2nd from the top). ALso, i have the Pacesetter y-pipe, no cats, straight pipe to 40 series FLowmaster.

My car sounds and smells like ***. I dont know what the hell is happening.

What shoudl I do? It smells like gas, but big time.

Im going to fix teh wires this weekend, and weld the exhaust everywhere

What else should i do?

 

also, would it have anything to do with the header gaskets being bad? they were replaced when they were installed.

 

and finally the evap system:

anyone have links on the entire system, and what needs to be replaced?

i never did it when i dropped in the lt1

 

There are two things that will cause it to run pig rich....

1. Misfires (sounds lke you have a few misfires from the wires)

2. Exhaust leaks (sounds like you may have a few of those as well)

Shoebox has a diagram of the EVAP system on his website. Let's assume you want the simpler OBD-I setup, without the flow sensor:



Do you still have the canister in the driver's rear fender? I would assume the V6 models must have something similar.

 

it took me a week to find why mine smelled like gas. found out my wife ran out of gas(didn't tell me) and bought a small gas can and left it in the car under some stuff. women!!
