I have a 88 with 71k on it and here is what happens. After the car warms up I experience: I step on the gas it stalls and I hear a couple of muffled backfires. I let up on the gas and it remains running. Hit the gas hard, transmission down shifts and nothing. Once I got it at highway speeds and it was fine for 80 miles.
To date I have had the car at a Chevy dealer for about 2 weeks and $1000+ later I still have the problem. They have replaced the Mass Air Flow Sensor, computer, fuel filter, EGR valve, fuel pump pressure is good and replaced several electrical connectors. They get several different codes, but I never get a "service light".
I like the mechanic, but I don't want to pay for his next Vet. Any ideas that I can pass on to him.
Interesting side light, while they were checking Tech bulletins they noticed there were four recalls on the car, which they are taking care of at no charge!
