Wierd problem on startup today

[Joel_SS]

All, I just upgraded my OS last week to a 2002 (12212156) and the car has been running fine. Although this morning something really weird happened. I went to start the car up and it fired up and immediately died. So I went to start it again it fired and then the tach and speedo both shot up to 7000rpm and 150mph respectively. The car started and the tach and speedo dropped back to their off positions, and then a few seconds later they camr back on and started reading normally. So I put the car in "D" and when I gave it some gas and it nearly died and just fell on its face. It was idleing fine though. It did this a few more times, but once it warmed up it drove just fine.. Any ideas?

Car is a 1999 Camaro SS A4 226/234 112 cam TCI 3500 stall

I've seen a few threads on this topic on www.ls1tech.com. I don't recall what the cause of the problem was though. Mine does weird stuff like that @ WOT

I'd check your wiring to make sure everything is connected tight and the battery has a good ground contact.

I know what it is :-) The 99s (I own one) had a over sensitive dash panel that would react to voltage issues. In 99% of the cases of this it turns out the be a battery starting to go south, I swapped to a new battery and the problem has not happend again in 2 years.

That's magnetic interference from the Flux capacitor.

You mean he's running an unshielded FC...? :bash:

I was told I couldn't because of the whole space time continuum thing...

I was told I couldn't because of the whole space time continuum thing... That's only for flux capacitors of 2.0 jiggawatts and higher

So without a shield it rips a hole in space-time if you're running more than 2.0 JW...? LOL.... :cheers:
Can we use the hole for time travel, get zero (or negative) 1/4 mile times...? LOL... :cheers:

Edit: Sorry we didn't mean to hack up your thread... :bash:

It's obvious you don't realize the gravity of the situation. As Doc Brown once said, "This is some serious shit".

That's a complete myth. My brother's cousin's girlfriend's Dad's brother's friend runs 2.2 jigs unshielded and has never ripped a hole in space-time. It's all in the tune!

Doc Brown also summed up the situation nicely by saying "Great Scott".

Sorry Joel, we seriously broke your thread, I apologize on behalf of everyone, if they let me.

"This is heavy..."

Guy's, I think we are over looking one major little detail. Very little testing has been done with a flux capcitor and resonance coupled plasma discharges. I would rather err on the side of caution and stick with my -10 second 1/4's

Hey buttheads....why don't ya make like a tree....and get outta here!

"that's almost as funny as a screen door on a battle ship"

We're going to because, "We really hate manure."

I originally had the intention to say "Hey!!" to Joel SS. It's not often that I see another Joel. :mrgreen:
But, a smart ass comment shot through my brain...I posted it...and I forgot to say - "HEY!! My name is Joel. too!"
So......
Welcome to the Forum Joel...sorry about the comment.

:cheers:
