Here's the deal...

Divorce, car acted up after split with wife and she had it, it sat for 4 months b4 i was able to wiggle it away from her. I now have a car that i cant seem to figure out what is wrong with it. I've checked a few things, and it just doesn't wanna run right. if your interested in it, let me know, i'll give you more info as to what is going on. I may just part it out. I love this car and hate to let it go, but i just don't have the money right now. I will have another one in the feature, that is if i end up selling this one. I know how to rebuild transmissions, so i may pull it, rebuild it, sell it. was thinking maybe throwing a 350 chevy, turbo it, and run it that way, i love how this car handles. Hit me with some ideas...

bogging down real bad and no power. acts like timing is off. I've checked several things and trying to narrow it down.

Cam sensors, checked out good
MAF sensor , good.
Coolant temp sensor and sender are good.
Cut off switch is good.

You ought to try to sell it as is to an enthusiast. List the year, miles, and a price, before you try to part it out.

update. i'm still poking around with this car because it's bugging me that i can't find the problem. I'm now getting a code 78 leading me to the fuel system. Gonna bypass the fuel pump ecu and see if that is it. I was in the process of changing the fuel filter and now need to fix the fuel line due to the rust on the lines.

It's a 1992 sc400 with 202,000 miles. New rear tires, front are 60 70%, has 17 inch light weight bbs rims. New NGK iridium plugs, temp sensor. Just little things i've added to find this problem.
THrow me an offer... as you can see in the pics, i can deliver it myself..

do the fuel ecu bypass first that is most suspect for your problem. also check your coils, and rotors/caps.

LSx swaps arent expensive ...keep it. Even if it has to sit a while for funds, keep it. You have a really good looking SC, and finding a replacement may not be easy later on.

No part out thread here guys, keep it on the topic of fixing it, not selling it please.
