Engine Performance problem
1984 Pontiac Fiero 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual
----------------------------------------------------------------
Hello,
My fiero has been having this problem for quite awhile now. The car starts normal and sounds normal.
You can feed it gas gradually and it sounds like a champ, though when you give it alot of gas quickly it bogs out and dies down. if you slowly give the car gas it works fine but once u give it fast, then it bogs itself out.

I Have pretty much eliminated a lot of problems, after searching the internet fourms etc.
I Have done the following:
replaced
-spark plugs
-spark plug wires
-air filter
-gas filter
-o2 sensor
- i even got another carb hoping that would solve the problem.
there might have been more that i can't remember.

what would be causing it to do this?
im thinking ecm?

Sounds like a classic fuel pump problem. I had the same issues and replaced everything and pump went out.
