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. |

yeah im willing to bet its a timing issue. i've done many t-belts (one on a 5s) and if they're off one tooth they either idle like shiit, and run great at high rpm, or they run great at low rpm, and like shiit at higher rpms (the 5s bogged around 4000-4500 when it was a tooth off, btw)
