'97 LT1 issues

[whytry2002]

My car has 93000 miles on it. When I bought it at 78k miles, I don't think it went through tune up yet. My issues are: squeaking on cold starts and when rains(i figure loose belt?), bogging down when full throttle after 4k rpm, feels like i am jabbing on the gas pedal(i am not sure whether fuel injectors, spark plugs or distributor?). I would appreciate any input? Anybody ran into similar problems or knows what's up?
Thanks, regards Viktor.

What you are approaching is the life of the original ignition parts. The system is designed for roughly 100K miles. If it were me, I would plan on replacing the following:

Spark plugs and wires
Optispark distributer
Coil and Module
Front cover oil control seals
Oxygen sensors

And I would probably do a new water pump as it has to be removed anyway. In my opinion, that's the only way to avoid all the individual breakdowns that would occur if you don't do it all at once.

Yup...what he said.
