Why oh why does my car die?
Heres my new problem you guys (and girls) my car 87 na keeps bogging down and than getting back up again and I have not a clue what it is. It only is doing when the engine is under load. It happens sometimes in a strait line when im halling ***, but it will almost always happen if i making a sharp turn or something when going fast. What could it be, not enough gas or to much. it just basicly feels like its dead and than like 5 seconds later it kicks back up and is good as new. Help me out here guys, this damn thing almost killed me yesterday. I was drifing around a corner in a nieborhood (no houses yet) and it died so in the mist of the drift it gained control and put me into a porter potty and 45! Thanks for anyhelp

yeah i'd say fuel filter. Especially since you mentioned on corners. Alot of people are having problems with fuel delivery on corners. As far as I know they've got a mix of people with old/new filters, stock/rewired/upgraded pumps and it seems to do it regardless. Might want to try a search for something along the lines of "fuel around corners" or something.

Thanks alot for the input, ill change the filter, and i started running nice gas in it. for the injectors, would i be able to just take them out and clean them with like carb clean or something. or would it have to be a "dr. injector" job? thanks

you'd probably have to send them to "dr. injector" to get them done. A nice prescription for them might be RC Engineering at http://www.rceng.com/
