Hesitation up to 2500 RPM??? This has me stumped. I've got a 00 TA with 77,000 miles and the only mod being LM exhaust and no cats. The car starts up fine and will drive great for about 2-3 minutes and then it will start to hesitate and cuts out under light load till around 2500 RPM's, it then smoothes out and runs hard. Even under WOT it doesn't run right till 2500 and then takes off. Sometimes the idle will even fall to around 500 RPM's.
It did this once in the past but it was almost out of fuel so I stopped and filled it up and it ran fine. Now it seems to do this all the time. I can rev it up and it will come out of it for a minute or two, then it goes right back to running like crap. I just don't get why it comes out of it at 2500-2800 RPM's?? It seems like the problem is from 1500 to 2500
I've cleaned the MAF and it seemed pretty clean. I've tried unhooking one plug at time and when I do that raw fuel spits out the tail pipe when I rev it but none does when they are all hooked up. So I believe it's firing on all 8. I just don't want to dump money into parts that I really don't need. Any help or imput is appreciated. Thanks
