Best Answer

'89 Chevy used Throttle Body Injection, which is computer controlled. The throttle body is electronically controlled, and the idle is controlled by the computer. Check the IAC (idle air control) solenoid, and make sure it is working. It is a large cylindrical solenoid that screws into the throttle body, and should have a four wire connector on it. Also, the computer is programmed to raise the idle slightly if the A/C is on to keep the alternator charging, so be sure to check that.

You have your car flooding its a spirit wita 2.5 ltr engine and it has a throttle body carb on it but it just keeps pumping gas into the carb what could cause this prob?

So which is it? Carb or Throttle Body? Throttle body is a single (sometimes 2) electronic fuel injectors mounted in a carburetor LOOKING device that sits on the intake manifold. A flooding throttle body injector system is caused by faulty electrical to the injector or more likely a sticking injector. If the problem isn't too severe yet, use some injector cleaner before you spend a lot of money. If it's a CARBURETOR, you have a sticking needle & seat or a damaged float inside the float bowl. It's a relatively simple job to rebuild the carburetor but if you have never done it before, you might want to just replace your carb with a rebuilt one.
