Hi again,

About my stumble/hesitation... Recently I have changed the plugs and wires, replaced the fuel filter, cleaned the MAF, cleaned the UIM, added a couple doses of fuel injector cleaner, cleaned out the throttle body. I just checked Each plug and replaced the wires one at a time, no luck.

No CEL light...

In gear, there is a noticeable and dangerous hesitation, out of gear, under the hood pumping of the throttle results in something i can only describe and the engine being punched in the stomach, kind of a deep vibrating suck, then it kicks in a revs up.

Any ideas? Right now i am going to check the coil, and see if i can diagnose that. Next step would be to take it to the dealer, just because i suspect they have the better diagnostic equipment, which may or may not be true. I Hate taking my car in anywhere...
