Can anyone help? My c4 corvette is running very rough.?
About a month ago, I purchased a 1986 C4 corvette w/ 81.5k miles. Up until today, it ran beautifully. However, this morning it started running really rough/badly. The engine doesn't want to rev at all, even with the pedal to the floor. Its bad enough that car has trouble going above 35 or so. When it starts up , there is what sounds to be a small amount of knock and 1-2 pings from the exhaust. Oil pressure/temp and coolant temp are fine, and the transmission is fine as well.
My (albeit brief and rather uneducated) guess is that a fuel injector is bad/leaking/clogged, but I'm not entirely sure. Does anyone know what a good place to start looking is?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
