Check Engine Codes Car Stalls After Revving but Idles All Day


I've got a 95 GT throwing codes:

122
552
553
558

Here's what my car's got:
Eliminated Smog System
Eliminated AC System
Eliminated EGR
Under Drive Pulleys
BBK Long Tube Headers
BBK Catted X Pipe
MSD Super Conductor Wires
MSD Cap and Rotor
BBK Cold Air Intake
BBK 75 MM Throttle Body
Trick Flow upper and lower Intake w/ 1" Spacer
Steeda Tri-Ax Shifter
Steeda Clutch Cable Quadrant
Fidanza Aluminum Flywheel
Rebuilt T-5
3.73s

The car starts good and will idle all day. If I rev it, it stalls but will fire right back up. Every now and then I get a backfire through the intake also. I've got so much money into this car and its been sitting for a couple years. I just wanna get it on the road. So any help is much appreciated.!

Which of those codes could be causing my problem. Which ones do I not need to care about and How do I fix my issue?

I believe "122" is the throttle position sensor below minimum voltage. 552 & 553 seem to be related to your air injection and 558 is related to the EGR circuits. The last three are there probably just because of the deletion of the related parts. Though the TPS is probably causing your main problem with any gas above idle. Though I'm not too great with the 5.0, might want to wait to confirm.

ohm out the tps and then open the throttle slowly to full throttle, the ohms should steadily decrease, if not then you have a faulty tps.

the back fire is a common issue whenever the egr valve is malfunctioning, which in your case it could be from deleting it. you can eliminate the egr valve with a tuner. if its already deleted using a tuner then i would start looking for a vacume leak somewhers

Bump. Anymore input? I'm gonna buy a TPS Wednesday to see if that works. Do I need to worry about the other codes? 552 553 and 558?
