Running wierd


It seems as though my car randomly has more or less power like it depends on its mood or something...any ideas as to what could cause that

lol... I think the same way with my car. It does seem to have more power some days then others it seems to be weak like when you push the pedal down it seems to be softer and less responsive, is that what you're talking about ? I was thinking about maybe the engines temp has some thing to do with it.

well i know after driving almost on E and then filling the gas tank you can feel the weight in the back end, but not sure what you guys are talking about or what would cause it.

Its more than likely the gas you put in it. I had the problem. Everytime I put BP gas in my car, it would move like a fing turtle. But, when I use the Shell Plus, it runs very good. Also, when its kinda humid out, it will not perform as well. Same thing for when its really cold out. (also when its cold out you get poor traction).

Poor traction? like as in your tires are hard because you didn't get em nice and sticky?
