[QUOTE="vipergts281, post: 14979935, member: 10912"] I get a very slight hesitation when I accelerate in 1st gear. It's only 1st because if I am above 1300 rpms or so there is no hesitation. If I rev the car at a stop (to about 1500 for example) and then accelerate it is fine, NO hesitation. So after the initial acceleration in 1st, going through the gears is completely normal. Even if I do it a little aggressive (no boost though). I know this could be a fuel or air issue. Looked under the hood, nothing obvious, of course. Do fuel injectors cleaners work? If not, do I just pull them and wipe them off to clean? Hoping this isn't a spark plug issue. I've had 4 pop on me over the years...it's always one of the back two on the passenger side. Last time I tried to pull the plugs the inserts came with the one. So now I'm paranoid to touch them. [B]I have a Predator hand held tuner. What can I look for to see if I have a fuel problem or a vacuum leak?[/B] Thought I read something about checking the short term fuel reading to see if it's a fuel issue. What range should it be in? Thank you for your time. [/QUOTE]
