Hey guys/gals,
I have a 89 Notch that has been converted into a full road race car and is not street legal. All the emission stuff has been removed.
The engine goes way down on power after a little heat gets into the engine.
I need help diagnosing the problem. Any shops out that can be recommended?
I'm in Sacramento, and don't want to trailer the car to far.
Thanks

It's basically a stock FI 5.0 motor with painless wiring, and stock computer.
Nothing to challenging, but I doubt a scan tool is going to pinpoint the problem.

If you pulled all the emissions equipment, you probably pulled the charcoal cannister...and capped the line. Tank still needs to be vented. Seen this one way too many times. ![[Smile]](smile.gif)
