95 Talon, mostly stock


The car has been running fine for quite some time, but lately I have noticed a bit of a hesitation/jerkiness to the throttle. I will be in 2nd gear at 2k RPM's and it almost feels like I'm bucking. According to the stock boost gauge, there is no boost when it occurs. It will also do it in 3rd and 4th, mostly when the turbo isn't spooled. It's just really weird because it wasn't doing this before. Anyone have any idea as to what it could be?

 

How bout some new plugs and/or wires????

 

I think his nitrous bottles empty. You should help him out with that.

 

you dont let stuff go do you?

 

Plugs and wires were changed less than 6 months ago. I tried to check for vacuum leaks and was unable to find any leaks.

 

Alright apparently either no one has an idea or no one wants to help. The hesitation is very obvious with no load just kind of cruising at 2k rpms. When the turbo spools the hesitation goes away. My only idea is maybe a bad fuel pump or something of the sort, since I can push the throttle in and the hesitation goes away. Could that be something to look at? Or would it be something more than just a fuel pump?

 

do a boost leak test.

 

How?

Also I need to make it clear that the majority of the hesitation is not when I'm pushing the throttle. If I'm in 3rd and I let off the throttle and let it roam at 2k I can really feel a hesitation every few seconds. According to the boost gauge, I'm not in boost when this hesitation occurs.

 

Replace your o2 sensor.

 

I think I found 1 of the culprits. I have double checked this biotch a million times, even going as far as removing it and tightening the clamps on it...

fucking clamp was loose again. I'm not sure if that was the end of the issue, but I did notice a slight change in the sound of the BOV after i really tightened it down and made sure it was completely secured on the ic piping...
