Hesitation


Well, i thought that we had figured out what was wrong with my car. bu i was wrong. If you all remember, i had a thread about he car not finding it's idol. well, after cleaning the maf, iac, new plugs, new tps. it got a little better. now there is a hesitation (stumbling) when i am doing an easy acceleration or just maintaining a certain speed. but under a quick accel the car does fine.

also i notice that when the car hesitates, my fuel pressure guage tends to bounce around as well. any thoughts??

my first guess was fuel filter as well.

That or your pump could be going out...unfortunatley. I'd try a fuel filter and see if that helps out

I had a stumble/hesitation at low rpm cruising. With some datalogging and some help from Joe at tricktuners it ended up being a bad oxygen sensor. My short term fuel trim was all messed up from the bad sensor. Replaced the sensor and it cleared everything up.

I'm not sure if it would affect your Fuel pressure like that, but just an idea.

Good Luck

I think the first thing I would do is put a mechanical fuel pressure guage on it to verify the reading. I also don't have the faith everyone seems to have in these"simple to install" focus pumps. every week on multiple boards it seems someone's problem is related to these pumps
