97 engine woes

97 camaro runs rough in any gears @ low rpm. higher rpm, it comes out of it. thought the jerking was bad clutch or 5 spd tranny goin bad, but think it might be the 3.8 Any similar experiences out there? Ran real smooth 5000 miles ago!

is the service engine soon light on?

as a matter of fact it is!!

there's your starting point then. get it scanned and tell us the trouble code.

That would be nice, but I forgot to tell ya that the parts store that tried to read the codes, said that the port to read codes had been disconnected(they said some car lots do that so u can't tell what's wrong with it till u buy it!) I can't figure out where it was disconnected! Have u ever heard of such a thing?

that sounds pretty shady to me. you gotta figure out how to get it working again. we can't really troubleshoot anymore until you can get that code from the ecm.
