Hello. Im seeking any knowledge possible about these engines. I purchased a 95 Camaro last week. Drove fine for a few days. Previous owners have a push button enabled to start it. Something about a security bypass. Worked with he key the 1st 2 days. After that it only work with the button. Took it to wash and clean it out. Decided to wash the engine bay too. Not much but just enough to get some trash out. Drove back home. Next morning no start. Turn key forward. All electrics come on normally. Turns over and starts for about 1 second then die. A friend came over and looked at it he touched the throttle body while I crank it. It crank straight up, and about 3 other different times that day by itself. 2 days later, it's right back to dying after it cranks. He said he didn't do anything but open the throttle a little. But it opens with the gas pedal like normal. Does the throttle body have anything to do with my problem or was that just a lucky touch? I'm stumped. Any help at all is very appreciated.

 

if you used the power washer to clean engine, that could be your problem. You could have forced water into an electrical connection which will cause problems. With luck maybe after it dries out it will return to normal. Good Luck
