'86 Problem---Part 2
Obviously I pissed someone off because my first thread was closed.
Hey, take it easy gentlemen!!!! I didn't intend to come off with "having an attitude". If I did, I apologize!!!!
This is my first Corvette and when someone says "read up on the TV cable" when I'm trying to get the car running right, I thought they were yanking my chain. I'm not totally familiar with the acronyms you guys are using. I do have a Haynes manual so I'll take a look at it in the morning.
I've been on other forums and, as with this one, have found them all informative and helpful.
Thanx for your assistance!!!

Problem is that it seems to bog down and be very sluggish on take off. After the first shift the motor picks up and seems to be running ok; however, I feel like it is still "holding back".
I'd also pull the fuel sump and strainer. Clear the bottom of the fuel tank of debris and purge out all the old fuel.
Also check the FPR for sludge and function check.
3 years is a long time for fuel to make a mess of things
