    02 Z06/ new MS4 cam / Stalling????

    This is strange...

    Put a TS MS4 Cam/springs/PR in my 02 Z06. 239/242, .649/.609 111 LSA

    Done the obvious idle air flow/ startup airflow corrections. It will idle sitting still but as soon as you let out the clutch past a certain point and try to move the car, it stalls. It is digital in nature, looses all power and is non recoverable even if you put the clutch in.
    it feels as thought there is a switch that cuts fuel and spark.

    Additional info...

    With the car running in neutral, if you push the car faster than 1 MPH it shuts off.
    I re-linked the VATS no change.
    Any Ideas?

    It was the Column Lock problem that these vettes have. If the MIL gets set, it cuts fuel above the set point of 2 MPH. I bypassed it in the tune and it went away...and the car flat out hauls A$$ with the MS4 cam.

    It was the column lock. It was intermitent and finally started showing a MIL for the problem. Changed the part, MIL disappeared and it runs fine.
