[QUOTE="SRT Handz, post: 484784, member: 8001"] So yesterday i finally get my car out of the garage (3 days of rain) to break in my brakes and all of a sudden i feel something off with the car, 2 minutes later....Check Engine Light Comes on :BangHead: I turn around to co home to see what the code is and the computer showed no code. So i cleared the Codes (even though they were none) and reset the computer. Even after that the car still runs like shit....here are the Symptoms. -Car is running REALLY rich -Car almost feels like its Missing or not getting fuel or spark -Below 2300 RPMs the motor has ZERO power, almost dies. Feels as its getting no spark or Fuel. Drives ALOTbetter after 3,000 RPMS -Car has ALOT of hesitation -Run OK when its col but after 5 mins runs like shit. Since i have reset the computer and cleared codes the check engine light has not come on since but the car runs like SHIT. Since then i have done these things.... -I have made sure that ever spark plug wire and fuel injector wire was plugged in. -I unplugged pretty much every electrical connection under the hood and applied Dielectric Grease to everything including spark plus wires and fuel injectors -To check if the Coil Packs were failing i swapped out the MSD units for the stock units, no better results. All of the above have not help one bit. I have eliminated a bad connection because i have checked everything and i have also eliminated the coil packs because they both stock and MSD packs produce the same results. So what do you think it could be guys? -O2 Sensors? -Plus Wires? -MAF? -IAC? -Fuel Injectors? I have already ordered O2 sensors and Plus wire which will be here on monday. I wanted to see what you guys think so i can eliminate the problem. Thanks, -Handz [/QUOTE]
