Dear friend, I can't thank you enough for making such well-made, detailed, straightforward vids about the Cadillac fuel system! I'm doing the same thing now to an '83 that's been sitting for 23 years, and your vids gave me the courage to actually do it myself! THANK YOU!

I have a 1985 Cadillac eldorado biarritz, its stalling and bogging when you hit the gas, like its running out of gas, this just started recently, I replaced the fuel filter and I know the fuel pump is working, but im not sure what the problem could be, because after it stalls, it will start back up right away.

Sound like it's getting fuel. As you know, besides fuel, it needs enough air and spark. I'd start looking at those two things next. I'll look through my shop manual for some possibilities for you. 1. How long has it been since the catalytic converter's been replaced? 2. Is the air filter new/clean? 3. What's the mileage on it? Is the engine original? 4. Does it stall when you press the gas pedal while driving? 5. How is it idling? Normal? 6. Has there been a change in gas mileage? 7. Is there any other weird electronic behaviors? 8. Is the timing set properly? 9. Is it throwing any codes? I'm not sure if the eldorado is the same as the Deville, but if it is, you can check the codes using the on-board diagnostics on the control panel. I made a video of how to do that here: kzitem.info/news/bejne/wmqr3Z6ljJZho20 Hopefully it's not the same problem I had with mine that led me to need to replace my timing chain/sprockets. I was losing power on the freeway, but it never got to the point that it stalled once it started up.

I have a 90 deville, dropped the exhaust system to fix a broken bolt on the connection to the exhaust manifold pipe and found the Cat to be falling apart. I had pour acceleration up hill and on the highway with a service engine light come on dash. Code read air management. Working on replacing cat while I have the system down and out of the car.

Great video! I just bought an 84’ Coupe and the idle seems to surge and drop. The car has been dying also. What symptoms were you experiencing that led you to the TBI rebuild? Thanks in advance for any advice!

At the time I did this, the car was not running at all, and I was going one by one and cleaning and replacing things to make sure it wasn't something simple that was preventing the car from starting. This ended up NOT BEING the reason why it wasn't starting. I'm sure that doing this though made it better and also eliminated the possibility it would make it difficult to start once the real problem was solved. The real culprit was a worn cam gear causing the timing chain to slip like crazy.

Is there 3 fuel lines? Or is the hard line next to the return fuel line just a hard vacuum line?
@team14robot

There's an inlet and an outlet for the fuel, and then the last metal tube passes counter clockwise (if you're looking top down at the engine) around the EGR valve, in front of the throttle body and then connects to a rubber tube with the pcv valve and then connects directly to the valve cover. I can't remember if it's simply a vaccuum line or a way for uncombusted fuel to be put back into the system for combustion. It's been years since I've looked at the diagram.
