1992 Camaro Rs 3.1 Hesitates under acceleration.

I have a 1992 Camaro rs 3.1L engine. I bought the car 2 months ago, 105k miles. It ran really well for about a month as long as the gas was over a quarter of a tank. Under a quarter it would hesitate while accelerating.

Now the fuel pump has started making a loud ringing noise and any time I accelerate it seems like it's starving for fuel. Also my Speedometer quit working, but I changed the Speed Sensor ... It worked for a day but then quit again.

What should I change first... Start checking sensors or replace pump and filter?

REPLACE FUEL FILTER THEN FUEL PUMP

    what if is drives normal? I have a '92 5.7 and it does it when I hit the gas good around 3000 RPM. I will change the filter but don't you have to drop the tank when you do the pump?

Gauges in 92 camaro rs stopped working

Remove it..Probably installed incorrectly . Tach is probably incorrectly wired into the distributor harness and effecting rpm voltage to the speedometer and may possibly blown the voltage regulator to the gauge in the dash.

1989 camaro engine

Here is a link for you to check the DTC code to see what issues your engine management has detected. I am going to suspect the EGR valve may be stuck open, that's why your having most of the problem you have described. Good luck and keep me posted and check or replace the EGR valve, the car is too old to just clean out the EGR valve.

92 RS Camaro, Replaced battery and now car has no power?

are your battery post bolts clean and tight, my 89 rs ran fine untill i decided i wanted shiny new battery bolts, when i put them in and tightened them down my car had no power at all, i checked how tight they were, and they were TIGHT so i wiggled the black cable and re tightened it and bam my lights turned on, tryied starting it, and it started, sometimes you just gotta make sure the connection is really good, not just how tight it is, also check your ground wires, there are a few but the main 2 are located at the front pass side next to the batt, and on the back firewall going from the bottom pass head to the firewall, hope that helps, if not comment back
