119181, bucking/stumbling on accelleration
Posted by uber_nny, May-10-07 11:19 AM
when i start to let out first gear the car seems to buck or even hickup and die for just a second then picks back up.
ive noticed a loss in power, gears run out alot longer, less accelleration.
when idling in neutral (sitting in driveway) a quick press of the throttle leads to the r's coming up but with what allmost sounds like a miss......or a hickup....something....i dont friggn know
checked gap on spark plugs, had an exhaust leak right before the cat, fixed that. no check engine light, just ordered a new coil and new spark plug wires.
what am i not seeing here?
> gears are about 5-10mph higher then they were at 3k rpm.
>> engine seems to slam when its given a decent amount of gas when in the low end of a gear (2-3.5k)
