Hey Everyone, (first post woot!)
Got a question for you guys. My 2002 bone stock GT has developed a stutter when asking for hard acceleration in say second or third gear at 1500-3000 RPM. When this first started, I did get a CEL and a Cylinder #3 Misfire code. I swapped the COP from cylinder 3 to cylinder 1 hoping to get a cylinder #1 Misfire but I havent gotten another CEL while the problem persists Here is what I have tried so far........
1) Checked to make sure I didn't over oil my K&N and dirty the MAF (Everything in the intake path looked clean)
2) unplugged each injector (one at a time) while the car was running. (noticable change in idle each time so I know the injectors are at least firing)
3) Replaced the Fuel Filter (55000 miles why not)
4) Fuel pressure was off the scale of the 50 psig tire gauge I was using when revved.
Another note, the car idles fine and seems to run ok at higher RPM, it only happens when under hard acceleration at lower RPM
I have a couple more ideas.... clogged cats or bad gas
Help would be appreciated!
Thanks!
