Stumble/No Power - o2 sensor?? My damn car just started bogging down whenever I push the gas here in town and on highway and it can't hold idle. By the time I had driven 3 miles or so back to my place, the car barely had any power and was stumbling all over the place whenever I would touch the throttle, and at idle. It seems to be a wiring issue. I have no SES light though.
Ok, so I am in MD outside of D.C. for an internship and just got here two days ago all the way from TX (~1400 miles the route we took) and the car did perfect the whole way here getting 25 - 28 mpg w/4.10s and 130k miles on the stock 02 longblock. I have my tools but live in an apartment and don't have a jack and the way the 02 sensor is on the passenger side, I can't get it out without pulling the exhaust which is a no-no here. The car doesn't even have enough power to get it up onto the rhino ramps because it can't hold a certain rpm worth a damn!
What should I do? What could it be if not 02 sensors? How can I check?
Thanks in advance!
