The last week or so I have been noticing an occasion HUGE hesitation under hard acceleration in my 2000 SVT (29K miles). Hesitation maybe isn't even the word for it, as the car really falls on its face. It happens about 4500 rpm. It's good up until that point, and then it just hits a wall--like a soft limiter or something. It wouldn't go beyond that-full throttle would just maintain speed. It was still making all sorts of noise, not like the sound if I backed off of the throttle to keep the revs at that level. In fact, if I backed off enough, it would slowly increase revs. But if I stomped on it again, the same thing would happen. Also, I found that if I changed up, it would accelerate normally again. If I then downshifted so that I was at 5250 or 5500 rpms, it would also accelerate fine from there. Anybody have any thoughts on what is going on here and what I could do to resolve the problem?
Thanks!
