if water gets on the 02s for example a deep puddle , they will act up . they should dry out and work that or just replace them with the bosch .

Is it fine at full throttle? Just it just hesitate in the lower rpms with partial throttle? Check plugs/wires and O2's. Even misfires should flash intermittent SES lights.

Yeah prob your O2's. Mine would bog and hesitate in the lower RPM's but full throttle at higher RPM's was fine. Although Im sure runnin very rich.
