				I have a stocked out 94 st and my take off is really slow. This has just been happening recently. I can floor it and more noise than anything is happening. Does anybody know what might be wrong. For example I can floor it in gravel and it doesn't even burn out, it's kinda scary entering a Hwy. and your barely moving. |

I also got the code 71 EGR malfunction, which I think is recirculating to much exhaust gas from restrictive flow. I should be getting my headers with in the next week or so and I'll be replacing the EGR valve, I'll post what happens. This post has been edited by 94st_santos: Jul 12, 2006 - 9:43 PM |
