 Help with a problem? Lately I've been noticing when I apply WOT my car is hesitant and continues to hesitate throughout the rpm range. Low to medium throttle has no problems...
I changed my fuel filter thinking it may be clogged but it is still hesitating. I only noticed a slight improvement in the upper RPM range. I can post a video tomorrow. I also recently changed my air filter so that should be clean.
Any suggestions?

Re: Help with a problem? Sounds like a spark problem. Check your plug wires, boots, connections, and plugs.

Re: Help with a problem? Get a scan. It could be KR pulling timing out. That would be very bad.
Fuel often does funny things. Put some acetone in your tank next time you refuel...

Re: Help with a problem? Here's the video I quickly made today... http://s93.photobucket.com/albums/l48/n ... 0_1768.flvIs this the same issues you guys were having? I sure as hell doesn't sound good but it only happens during WOT. Regular driving is all fine. I had my spark plugs changed about 3 months ago!

Re: Help with a problem? Well I guess i'll replace all my plug wires to start since juicy was kind enough to give me some  when he still lived in stoon! if that doesn't work i'll move onto the plugs themselves

Re: Help with a problem? Feels like a misfire? My car had the same problem turned out to be ignition coil 6 I replaced my plug wires twice once with oem replacements once with zzps and plugs a bunch to try and fix it. My coil went because when I installed my headers it was about 3am when we finished and I had school and work in the morning so I didnt do much to protect my plug wires, it shorted across the header for #6 and I guess partially fried the coil.

Re: Help with a problem? Most definitely sounds like a spark issue.
The reason you are noticing it only under heavy load is due to the waste spark prevalence in the ignition.
