Hey guys, welcome to todays video. in today's video, I try to get running a 1991 Pontiac Firebird. will it run and drive for the first time in 10 + years??? and will I be able to get this thing to drive out of the wrecking yard with no VATS keys. I found this third gen Firebird at a wrecking yard not parked not to far away from some other third gen Trans Am and Camaros. and I simply could not leave it there. so in today's video I am going to get running this Pontiac Firebird without VATS keys. stay tuned to the video to see how you're able to get your 3rd gen Camaro Trans Am or Firebird running without the VATS keys (Vehcile Anit Theft System) the goal for the video was to be able to get the car running and driving and take it to a local car show. so hopefully go from Wrecking Yard to car show in the same week.
will it run will it drive??? stay tuned to the end of today's video to find out thanks for watching.

Great video! It was nerve wracking everytime it almost started haha! Also learned a lot about the VATS system and I'm sure it will help others. I like how you explain what you're doing, and nice clear close ups. Thanks for putting the time and effort into this video. Was fun to watch!

I had a 92 park avenue with the "computer chip key" it had 289,000 miles original engine trans when I got rid of it. Both still fine. However car was so rusted it wasn't safe. Anyways being a first year model plus having 250k miles it had quirks. One of em was occasionally the chip wouldn't read. On that car it would shut down the fuel pump and possibly injectors as well it would still crank though. The bad part was it shut down for 15mins. If you tried it before 15mins the clock would re start. So you could wait 14 mins, try it then have to wait again. Anyways from what I understand about the system the chip was just a resistor. Each one had a different ohms value. I was told years ago you could have a gm dealer run the Vin and give you a # for what resistor you had. Then either buy a key cylinder set online or buy a key, file it down to fit the cylinder in the car, then splice in longer wires, tuck the original cylinder under the dash, then install another cylinder in the column. That way the vats system is effectively bypassed.

As an owner of an 83 Bird, I am happy you got this car. It has no business in a grave yard. You would have saved yourself a lot of time and money with this VATS system by using the free software for reprogramming the ECU on these cars and unchecking the box that says VATS.

@fullyloadedkustoms 8 ай бұрын

Nice that's awesome I had an 83 Trans Am in high school. Thanks yeah I agree it had no business being in that yard at all. Transmission does need to be replaced. Actually came across an 86 Firebird yesterday that I'm going to pick up later this month. It's got the T5 manual transmission and the 2.8V6. I'm thinking I'm going to take the T5 and put it into the 91 Firebird. Rebuild a 700 R4 from that car. And then pull the 2.8 V6 out of the 86 and drop in a 350/rebuilt 700R4 into the 86 and restore that one too. Haha I also have a pair of 84 Trans ams I'll be picking up too later in October. To build as well, haha come across some really good deals when I'm out doing my internet installs.

My dad bought a 92 camaro several years ago and the owner didn’t have the keys. I wired in a potentiometer from a guitar to find resistance needed for the key and it fired up. Measured resistance and permanently wired resistors in and no need for the chip key.

@johnbweems oh that's a really good idea I've had a the few people tell me it was a common problem for those vehicles that the wires for the key would pinch in the column and cause issues for VATS system. That Gator bypass moduleI picked up seemed to work really well. I think for any other third-gen I pick up I'm going to do just that wire in the right resistor so I don't have any issues with the keys.

I greatly love the 91-92's due to the aerodynamic nose cone but its virtually impossible to find one that isn't spiderwebbed. My 91 I had was a cancer victims car named Sam Ross. He built it in his shed with all sorts of goodies. It sat for 10 years after he died where someone bought his home from the bank and inherited the firebird in the shed. Then they listed it for 500 bucks for a no title v6 firebird. Boy was I happy, 350 with bunch of goodies and AutoZone special cosmetics lol!

You can fully bypass VATS by having a chip burned for the ecu, and removing and bypassing the relay in the kick panel. Or you can get a sign wave generator and feed that to ecu and bypass the relay. But since you figured out the resistor value you can get a key cut and keep VATS. I'm one of the few hat has VATS operational in my LS swapped car. Don't forget to change the diff fluid before driving it much, and re pack the front wheel bearings, commonly over looked on these.

Perfect, thanks for the information. That's good to know. I am picking up another firebird that I will be looking at, pulling the motor and transmission. If I'm able to eliminate the vehicle any theft system from that one, it would definitely save a lot of headaches trying to get it started dealing with the computer electronic system. Since it would an older carburetor 350 going into it. Perfect thanks for letting me know the maintenance tips I will be sure to check those out.
