hey guys,all of a sudden today after i replaced my alt belt and battery, my car started to die out at around 6500 to 7000 rpm in every gear ...It's like im pulling really hard and then slam on the breaks,then back on the gas again wtf is going on?????WTF
 
I would make sure alternator connecttions and battery for that matter are clean and tight. If you checked, go check again. Sometimes when we do things we tend to sometimes make silly mistakes trying to rush and get the job done. A bad ground will do all kinds of things to the car. It almost sounds like you hitting knock, and hard, so I would make sure your boost controller and all other vacuum lines are hooked up and not loose. Do you have a boost leak tester made?
Check the tension on the belt. Make sure your pos(+)cable is not loosey goosey behind starter. Sounds odd but just make sure all pos(+) connections and no boost leaks.
 
Took nothing else apart checked all grounds and pos. Connections and boost leaks are limited to tb shaft seals..
Mod list is up to date..
Just changed plugs and wires and still there..

I don't think it is fuel cut ### it is in everygear.

FYI Shell gas is not very good. Its all advertising. I always get 1-3* of knock on shell v-power, whereas on any of the ones listed below I get 0.4* at the most.. If you want good gas, go to cheveron, exxon, mobil, or texaco.
 
Wow good to know thank you

What grounds should I check??

Ok so I just checked my timing and it is spot on grounds all look good, I guess in the am I will try fuel filter then god knows what

Alright guys I figured it out my speed sensor came unplugged plugged it back in and boom all better
