Car acting sluggish!

[projektstang]

I step on the gas and it goes for a bit then just acts slow. also, the rpms fluctuate between 250-1250 when I push in the clutch stopping at a light.

any ideas or suggestions?

buy a V8



all kidding aside... a mod list would help

have you checked anything?

when was the last time the fuel filter was changed?

 

[Mike K]

Your missing 2 cylinders...

Like stated above change your fuel filter. When you did your tune up did you gap the plugs to spec?

 

[projektstang]

plugs were gapped, oil changed, new air filter, new fuel filter, etc.

sorry project but i find it funny its acting slow, after people asked for proof in your thread where you claim you kill gt's.
just sayin

 

[projektstang]

true. it doesn't make me look good at all. but this promlem seems to be getting worse.

but it seems to run fine at night. would this be a MAF issue if a temp change could cause this!

Does it happen when you doing mad tight drifting? Or more of a strait line gt smack down type of driving?

 

[projektstang]

haha just normal highway driving. I feel it more over 65 or 70.

Cleaned the TB lately?

 

[JesseW.]

if its an 05 or 06 i'd check to see if the fuel pump tsb was performed. pull the bottom of the rear seat, the rubber stopper on the driver side and see if the fuel pump is an 07 or later. its printed on the label. it not, you should buy a motorcraft pfs376 fuel pump from amazon(cheapest) and install it.

look up:
06-9-9
HESITATION ON ACCELERATION AFTER LONG CRUISE

cleaned the TB last week.

it's classes as an 07 but it was built on: Friday, October 13, 2006.

[projektstang]

ok thanks. im thinking it is an 06 fuel pump since the car was built in 06

[projektstang]

just looked it up. do you know if this was a recall?


real men do it slidewayz!

 

[JesseW.]

not a recall, just a tech service bulletin. if someone brought it in under warrenty, they would fix it free. if out of warrenty, owner must pay. it took me about 20 minutes to change mine out and i had never done it. you only need a screwdriver or drift and something to hit it with to remove the locking ring.

 

[projektstang]

ok. and you just changed the whole pump out?


real men do it slidewayz!

 

[JesseW.]

i did. i opened both up and they had the same walbro 155 pump in them, so i think it has something to do either with the filter or the fuel lines in the hat.

I told him in his other thread it was that awsome adding a million HP throttle body spacer
