ck4 - Car stuttering when accelerating

wacko469 · Postby **wacko469** » September 9th, 2008, 9:23 am

Can anyone offer some advice,
Local Ck4 ,with 4g92 engine, check light NOT ON. but the car would stutter when accelerating and then take off normal. and at normal speeds if yo use the kick down it would sound like it is missing . Checked injectors and air flow, already, but i am still getting the same problem.

When I was buying my lancer, most of the owners had the same problem. They said that it related to the TPS Sensor. You shoulda have an analysis done.

Btw, could also be the distributor coil cap, where the plug wires come into. That gets warn out sometimes.

Maybe it's time u changed the engine

...i'm just playing.
Clean your Throttle and dust out your MAF.
Strange enough I know someone experiencing the same prob as yours, they ran scan and nothing showed up so he decided to clean the MAF and the car works good.

^Check marud marketers in Union Road, Marabella. I recall seeing some 3 diamond stickers and associated rice there.
