My camaro sat for 3 months with little to no gas in it. Before that it ran great, but now will sputter occasionaly but not stay running. It now has a little over a 1/4 tank of gas. Just replaced (and still wouldnt start afterward) Distr. cap and rotor, plugs and wires. Any help? 1988 Chevy Camaro V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic 99000 miles 305 Throttle Body

i had the same trouble with my 98 3.8lt 3800 series II. i changed the spark plugs still no dice i changed the cables still same problem i then changed coil packs and the control piece under the coil packs that fixed it. the misfire caused it tho run rich ,which cause black smoke you might also run some fuel cleaner through it on a tank of primium gas. hope this helps
SOUNDS LIKE YOU NEED BOTH THE ALTERNATOR AND THE STARTER TESTED.THE CAR SHOULD STAY RUNNING OFF THE ALTERNATOR ONCE BOOSTED,IT SHOULD START OFF THE BATTERY WHEN FULLY CHARGED.
sounds like possible a sensor went bad or is loosly connected. O2 sensor??? Also check the air filter. Sounds like whatever it is, is making the truck run rich----that would be the black smoke.
