Chevy V6 Needs Help- non camaro.

I got a 86 Celebrity that im using for my winter car, wondering if anyone can help me out. 2.8 V6 Carbed.

When it hasnt been run in a while, you start it, and it will stay running albeit very rough like a "vroomvroomvroom....vroomvroomvroom" (lmao). after it runs for 2-3 minutes you have to give it a goose and then it will run good.

Also, for some reason, when you are low speed turning, if you turn the wheel more than like a half turn and tryy to say pull into a parking spot, it dies. starts right back up, but it dies. It does have power steering.

It also while running just sounds like it has a lopey cam in it. just doesnt run as smoothly as it should.

No CEL, no warning lights, has a new exhaust, supposedly newer plugs and wires (they look good). I cant help but think that this is a fuel delivery issue, and i know zero about carburetors. Weird, i can tear apart a fuel injection system but know zip about carburetion.

Help! Need it fixed, its my only car.

Go to the forums at www.60degreev6.com

Those guys will probably have an answer for you in less than an hour. I get help with my 3.1L Lumina from them all the time.
