car bogged and stalled

[chrisfrom nj]

my 92 camaro rs bogged and stalled now i turn the key and no power to the ignition no gauges nothing what can it be

1.) check your battery terminals! i hate those f^%ing sidepost terminals... another great idea by gm

2.) see if your headlights even come on. if not, try changing your battery. if you have lights, and it starts, then your altenator has a bad connection/fusible link or is most likely bad

Got headlights, but Still no start ?
3.) did you mess with your VATS?

This doesnt help you?? Still nothing?

Youre on your own lol

prolly battery cables or a fuse cant see it being anything else!

[98tadriver]

ahhh put a diesel engine in it, itll run faster. your camaro will have like 300hp and 1100lb ft of torque!

im gonna take a guess and say a fuseable link blew going to the starter/bad connections

how do i know which one where can i get a fusable link

[camaro2you]

i dont know who sells them but your local parts store sells fusible link wire, and that is what i used, to know if the link went bad take take the wire off the starter and put power to each of the wires and see if it is coming through the link with a test light on the other end. let me know if you need any picutres or anything.

A4 or T5? Could be a park/neutral switch or clutch override also.

The bogging sounds like it was from the fuel pump getting cut off from the power loss.

chris im following this thread if you need any help hit me up on AIM

[chrisfrom nj]

i fixed it it was a broken wire on the starter i poked it with the test light and the plastic broke no wire it was like the wire melted for some reason luckly the fuseable link was still good. thanks for your help everyone if you guys ever need anything let me know

[chrisfrom nj]

is the wire going to break again i hooked it up and sodered the wire to the fusable link on one end and i bolted the other end up to the starter now my car has a high idle like the timeing is too advance then when i turn the car off then turn it back on it idles normal and has more power do you think the computer may be going or a sencor
