Idea. This didn't start after you washed the car,did it? My car was doing nearly the exact same thing. I had washed the car and somehow got water into the connectors on the PCM.

Re'
it was origionally a 98 v6 camaro. i had a 00z and wrecked it 3ish years ago.. hell maybe longer now but all said and done now. well we did the v8 swap into it and while it was out, the shop cleaned the motor/put a TR224-112 cam, all new valve train etc. ran fine for a few days then its never been right since.

like i said before it seems to idle fine. never dies, but once you start to drive it it missfires pretty bad at 2k - 2800-3100ish rmps.. most of the time it clears up after 3k and all of a sudden the power kicks back in and pulls(and i need to mention i never get on it bc im afraid of messing it up. i almost never drive it, and when i do its only a few times around the block/street just to keep it goign now and then.

bleh, depressing...
