:mad:My car is the #1 Studda?!?!:mad:
I do not know what is up with my car! When i swapped it in it kind of studdered the first couple days but then went away. Ive put in a new fuel filter,wires,plugs,cleaned up the points and the rotor. And i was hoping it would all be fixed when i put in my new o2 sensor today, and it did....for 20 minutes, and then the studdering came back. What happens is, ill be driving around fine for a while(2-10min.) and then the car will not want to accelerate at all(it just studders and bogs down hard), unless im at full throttle, at which point it accelerates fine. WHAT COULD IT BE?!?! im getting angry with my car i dont have a clue what the problem could be. HELP!!!

my car acted like that when we ghetto rigged my distributor coil to get it to start.
When I finally got a new coil and all the wire where connecting it worked fine. No saying its the coil but check the basic ignition stuff too.
Just something to help out

can you mention all the grounds and their locations? oh, and this might help too. it didnt have a problem for about 1 week after the symptoms disspeared, until it rained(i was delivering pizza in the rain). then my vss crapped out and the studdering started.

The symptoms you are giving could be just about anything, though. But, you piddled around with the fuel system and the ignition before the problem came back, so I'd look through those systems first. Checking the fuel pressure would be a start, and then you can start with the grounds.

had the exact same shiit when I installed my headers. Turns out that one of the solders going to the relocated O2 sensor had come loose.. Do you have headers? Its definately electrical. with the rain causing it to flare up.

Re: :mad:My car is the #1 Studda?!?!:mad: (DarkKnight[DMD])
im just wondering what it could be. im thinking it has to be something electrical too. was running fine with no studdering etc until it rained. but i still have the o2 code and vss code. shouldnt have anything to do with the vss though. man. its sooo frustrating.

Re: :mad:My car is the #1 Studda?!?!:mad: (blufke)
I have the same exact problem with my '90 Teg. Replaced the wires, plugs, fuel filter, pcv valve, and checked timing. Still studders when starting off.
It's funny that you mention "rain," because mine is even worse after it rains. To me, this is an electrical problem where water/condensation is shorting something. My best guess is that it is a sensor.
Unfortunately, I have no fuggin idea where to look next. It has been happening for so long that I have given up trying to figure it out.

Re: :mad:My car is the #1 Studda?!?!:mad: (Lynx)
someones gotta have some help. oh, and where are all the ground? ive counted from valve cover to chassis, and really low gauge wire from little bracket on top of the tranny to the chassis, any other ones?
what should i check since its still throwing the o2 code after changing the o2? its really hard to see much of anything under the intake mani.

umm... well maybe i am wrong, but now it sounds even more like a fuel problem, because, when your car thows a cel it goes in to SAFE MODE and then dumps more fuel in to be on the safe side, so it could be another sensor that is causing the problem maybe your maf? not sure, btw have you tried resetting the ECM??
