re. Can you ask the list for me?

Might be good to know more about the car - year, make model.

 

If I had to take a SWAG I'd guess Oxygen sensor failing.  But could be any
number of things.

Hey james,

 

can you ask the list regarding my car problems:

 

1. Car struggling big time to get up to above 3000 RPM, at any gear but

never stalled. Like it is short on gas. Once get past 3000 rpm, runs

better but still has some jerking motions

 

2. Idle is not stable, going from  800 rpm to 1000 rpm and back

 

Recently replaced all 5 plugs and added a new oil change using 5-40

castrol Syntec. A new fuel pump was installed a few months ago. But

recently heard a thump in the back everytime I started up the car. I

think I heard the fuel pump starting up.

 

Starting is no problem and there is no black smoke.

 

Thanks james.

 

Later,

 

J.]
