1994 Procharged LT1.
When I pulled it in the garage for the winter it ran fine. I did a bunch of work to it, mostly cosmetic and minor stuff, over the winter. I pull it out for the time on Tuesday and after it gets warmed up it stalls after about 45-60 seconds of idling. It will fire right back up idle perfectly for 45-60 seconds and stall again. It will not stall when its cold and idling high or when driving it. The throttle response does seem a little jerky when first depressing the pedal or when barely resting your foot on the pedal going down the road and letting off. That might just be my imagination or me not used to driving the car in the last 5 months, not sure.
I have checked for vacuum leaks, loose grounds, etc. The only thing I can think of that I did that would have any effect on idling whatsoever is that I eliminated the PCV system. It was a 2 hose system with an elbow coming from a valve cover and the PCV valve in the IM and both hoses running into the intake elbow in front of the blower. I then put an "abbreviated" PCV system back on it. I ran a hose going from the PCV valve to a vacuum nipple on the TB and it made no difference.
Any advice on fixing this thing?
