TS87FC3S · 02-14-2010, 06:09 PM

OK so i bought this car a couple weeks ago its an 88 GXL, it needed a clutch, so i put a stage 3 race clutch (came with it) in and when i went to drive it.. after having to be jumped it starts and wont idle right it surges, idles rough, sound like it randomly misses and cuts out. After taking it down the road anything over 1/2 throttle cut out bad till it got a lil warmer then i went to run it up in the rpms

and about 6 grand it lost power, tach cut out. also car keeps dieing everytime i try to stop it dies and has to be jumped even thoughs volts show 12volts.

Any ideas? this is driving me crazy
