Sometimes when I put my 99 corvette in drive, it just dies out. I try it 3 or 4 times and it still dies out. I keep trying and woopee, it runs like a champ. What could be the problem. Please Help.

I put in an after market steering column lock I got from Eckler's corvette to stop my problem with my Vette stopping pulling out my drive.

Could be a great many things. When was the last time it had a tune up? Airfilter, plugs, fuel filter should be a good start. I would look at the MAF mass airflow sensor next.

A couple of good items to consider for problems like this are a good Corvette ScanTool 425801 OBDLink SX USB: OBD Adapter/Diagnostic Scanner
