There's not much else I can say to describe the problem. The engine runs amazing from idle to 4000, but then at 4k I can feel it stop pulling [as in the power just seems to stop] and it just kind of hesitates there and bucks a little bit. I dont want to blow it up so I upshift as soon as it starts doing it.

I currently have no CELs, I checked the plug wires earlier and they look basically brand new and all seem to be connected properly. The prev owner was a member here and had NGK plugs put in. I'm thiking of replacing the plugs but not sure what else would cause this problem.

Thanks for any input.

@ PRESURE No chance of a vid at the moment bro. I understand about it running out of power at 4000+, that's what the PO told me when I was raging about this. But I also know it's not a diesel truck and if I want to rev it to 6000 it sshould do that no problem. Everything just seems to come to a halt at 4000 though.

@ 95CELIST Not a clue man. The car is stock except for intake.

How do I check the timing?
