when the car is first started the idle isnt steady. it typically idles at around 1000 rpm ... however this problem causes it to periodically drop for a second to 800 rpm a few times before returning to normal idle.
related problem. when accelerating the i have the same kind of hesitation ... press pedal down and it accelerates like this:
-_-_--_---_--------------- : where _ represents no acceleration and - represents acceleration.
plugs,plug wires and computer thing that emulates distributor cap ( cant think of name ) have just been replaced.
: my thoughts ... recently ive thought exhaust problems ( had the cat convertor checked and its in good shape , no exhaust leaks ), plugs arent gapped correctly ? fuel filter ( im not even sure if my car has one or not ).
