98 TA WS6 5.7 starts then stalls after 3-4 secs

Asked by SickLS1 Sep 15, 2015 at 03:02 PM

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 98 TA Ws6.  Headers, F.a.s.t throttle body, SLP 3" exhaust, LS6 intake, motor is 2001 Vette.  PCM is 2001 computer. Harness rewired for 99 and up.
Was throwing code P0340: "Camshaft Position sensor "A" circuit High Bank 1 or single sensor" . Then, traced all wires though harness from cam sensor to pins (wires) in PCM, Found a wire in wrong pin in connector, fixed and it starts rite up now but stalls after 3-4 secs. Also replaced two o2  sensors and cam position sensor. Now, no codes, but still starts and stalls! Also replaced fuel pump. Replaced "crank" pos sensor also.

hummm sounds like something is loose...so did you fix the code? remove battery cable/clear code ..does it have the same code or a different one after you re start it in that 3-4 seconds..
