It also stumbles slightly after idleing for a minute or so. I live in Mazatlan Mexico and the gas, from what I've been told, is dirtier than the U.S. so I'm hopeing it just needs an injector cleaning. Already changed the fuel filter. Could it still be a tranny issue? Thanks, John 1998 ContourLX V6 ATX Cats Gutted+MIL Eliminators Grandma gave me the finger
