i failed emissions

YES, it sounds like I have a huge cam in it. Here is the thing, I started the car this morning, it had ice all over car so I knew it would do it. The car right after I started doing it tried to die. I had to scoot down the street where no one lives and keep rpm at 1500, then after it warmed up it drove fine. My light came on again, anyone know what those codes mean? I looked it up in the tuner, but what do they really mean??
Panda, what should my trims be? It cant be a vaccume leak because it does not do it all the time, only when it is cold out. Also, If I have a leak at the rear header can this cause that to happen??
First code is upstream o2 sensor code second is a downstream o2 code and last is a rich code. Check fuel pressure regulator. Pull vac line off and see if its wet with fuel. Had a prob with them leaking fuel into the engine after sitting for awhile. MAF could also b dirty. If ya have tamper proof torx you can remove it and see if there is a buildup between the wires.
now this is what I'm talking about, thank you for the insight I will look into this thoroughly . I went to missions again in my car failed . Said it rejected to test . then right after that my check engine light went on . I just cannot win . if I have a exhaust leak at my rear header can that cause this to do that ?I just replaced the upstream o 2 should I replace the bottom 1 ? also I thought my bottom 02 didn't report ? is there anyone that can possibly help me find a vacuum leak ? oh and get this I took my car to pontiac in crystal lake , they said they would not look at it. they said it was too modified. and ron vogel does not answer the phone or messages so I think Im at a loss
I cleared the codes abd put about 50 miles on it. The problem is at 36 miles the light comes on. Its like clock work!

and a few more but I cant remember. I would have to bring out my book of mods.
ALSO, I remember in the days of ILGPC some members told me there was a tool that you bolt on the dog bones and it like a A tool. It pulls your motor forward so you can get to the back garkets. Anyone know anything about it??
So my plater are now suspended so im not in that big of a hury now, but I do want it fixed and im willing to do whatever so let me know guys, Thanks.
OK, Ill try this. Im guessing you just undo the two front dog bones and then strap it to pull it forward. So there is no ( A ) tool?
Hello again guys. The time has came.I need to ask someones help with my Grand prix. I have changed the spark plugs, put new coils on it, new wires. I replaced a hose that was leaking but it did not fix the leak. My plates are suspended, and the car cant move. When I put the new coils on instead of dieing the car now shoots to 1000 rpm and runs fine until it settles again. I need to pass emissions by april or I have to sell my car. I really need someones help to get this thing running. I will pay someone for gas to come take a look. Anyone on here willing to help me out. I need to get this done ASAP!
it was a mis-fire, high or max o2. not the car sucks air in like crazy when you start it and tries to die. maybe it could be a tuning issue?? but i need this fixed asap. I really need some help with this..
I got them from advanced. Anyone know the gap size?
Anyways, I put the new wires on, no change. As soon as the car stabilizes in rpm after start it tried to die, then the intake sucks air in like crazy. I scanned and got two codes. 403 and 405. Something about gas circulating and egr valve position sensor. Any ideas?? Guess shes not going to make it to Lukes tonight
