more crappy simptoms!

JASonic · April 12th, 2008, 11:43 PM

When I hit the gas to accelerate from a stop, my car hesitates a bit. It almost sounds like a crappy mis-fire or mild back firing. Like its just not hitting right. Doesnt do it any other time. Just at takeoff. Could it be it needs new plugs?

Mines auto too. The air filter is clean, just had the oil changes and tranny fluid... everything seems up to par. The CEL hasnt came on. IDK, its always something with this car. The other night I was driving real fast on I-75 for quite a few miles. I wonder if I fucked something up.

It's a v6. All autos do it. Mine does it too, haha. Your not alone. Are you running stock gears?

JASonic · April 13th, 2008, 12:05 AM

yep. stock gears.

Well, it never did it before. Im thinking about selling it again. Its getting warm again and I can tell because its getting sluggish too. My car hates the heat for some reason.

Im going to open my scoop all the way up and let that engine breathe. Maybe change the plugs. I was thinking about getting those MSD wires, a screamin demon coil pack and some copper plugs. Maybe it just needs a good tune up kinda thing. It does have the original in there still and Im just over 70k miles. Maybe its finally time to change all that shit.

More than likely, haha.

If your thinking about selling it, why put the coil pack and stuff in?

Take it to a mechanic that you trust...tell them the problem and see what they say.
