Your 2000 Chevy Cavalier Z24 idles too fast at start up and now there is piston problems Why?

There could be a vacuum leak somewhere causing the engine to idle too fast. It would also cause the engine to run too lean and possibly burn a piston.

How do you fix a 1991 Chevy cavalier Z24 it starts but when you put in gear it stalls?
This can be a number of things. What comes to mind first is, if this is an A/T you may have a bad lock-up torque converter, or the solenoid is stuck. If the engine runs and idles great until you put it in drive, this would be my guess.

Chances are, you have either a bad lock up solenoid . Or you may have a bad fuel pressure regulator. This is where I would look first
