I love the standard GM TBI. Simple, effective, reliable, and usually not hard to diagnose when something does go wrong. My 1991 G20 would get about 15 MPG with it all day long at 60. 65. 70 didn't matter. By comparison my 2002 vans actually get worse mileage with the fuel injection they run, although the 2500 is supposed to get about the same. The only bad year for the TBI is 1995; fed emissions standards were tightened a bit and GM's solution was to detune the TBI slightly in a way that reduced fuel economy, rather than spend money to really change a system they already knew would be abandoned for 1996. Under two grand really isn't bad for one of these, I see Auto Auction Rebuilds bought his parts car through IAA auctions and he paid $1600 for one with a bunch of damage from something falling on it and it turned out to have a bad transmission. Both of his are a couple years newer with the more desirable TPI too.

You messed him up by telling him to give it some gas starting it. Although the injection setup is similar to the truck set up, the ECM is primitive compared to the various ones used in the trucks (BTW, a great upgrade for these setups) and doesn't understand that, when he gave it gas you flooded it. At that point the only thing that would have fixed it is if he floored it and that would tell the ECM "I think I flooded it," and it would have shut off the injectors to "clear flood."

It was called the "Ceasefire" for a reason. When they ran , they ran ok. The problem was the throttle position sensors would fail for seemingly no reason. At $60 a piece you could fix them one day and they could fail again the next... $120 a shot adds up. Many of these Vettes were converted to carburation.

He’s had been converted to an Edelbrock four barrel carburetor and had some sort of electrical problem likely the voltage regulator as the batteries would not charge and would not hold enough charge to continue to spark for very long especially how he drives it… He told me he paid 8700 for that! I would love to have one of these, but have you ever known anyone who has wrecked a fiberglass car before? Odds are that you do not because they were decapitated from the hood… Thanks for the videos, cheers!
