the swap is only 1 year and 5 months old, and only 500 miles since the swap.
the car has not been driven a lot the last 7 months. It almost went on a empty tank of gas. Long story short, about two weeks ago decided to daily drive it again. The hesitation was new, but i took the maf out and exchanged it for another one, and added fresh gas to the tank, the hesitation went away. I have been out of the country for about 10 days. I came to drive the car and the hesitation is now back. At first, (two weeks ago) It was not all the time, its like suddenly lost power to one cylinder and then it came back. Difficult to explain. I use to give it gas and then it was better. but today its most of the time, but it disappears for a few seconds. I know there is nothing wrong with the engine compression, but im concerned of course with : 1. Injector clogged 2. Vaccum leak 3. Bad sparks 4. bad maf This engine used to purr like a kitten, but im afraid its lack of use may have caused this. I have a can of seafoam ready to use, before i start taking the route of cleaning the injectors profesionally and wasting money. here are some videos.. car is at idle:shocked: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I0LC_euE7pg driving slow in the street, i try to give it some gas to clean the obstruction, so that's me accelerating, the car does not do that. Just bogs down...:tear: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fugSnfmqS30 Should i just seafoam it or where do you guys send your injectors if that seems to be the problem...
