Well you need to give us a little more details about you car.. what engine you have and what mods you have.. and cam specs..

I beliieve you have a 3.4... right?

I'm thinking you don't have a MAF sensor.. perhaps your MAP sensor is malfunctioning.. I would ask.. why is the PCM adding so much fuel? Is the PCM really adding fuel? what are your pulse widths at idle.. etc. etc.

thats the issue with running a cam on our cars, it floods at low rpms and runs out of fuel up top, you could use a AFPR to correct the problem and thin out hte mix , but then u will really starve for fuel up top, only way to fix this is a custom program.

it could be something else causing the problem though, it should be able to idle still :eek:


the AFPR I have is from a 3rd gen TPI 305 fbody, works good.
