[V6-12v] C4 100 new owner questions

Kent,

"The car hesitates on acceleration."
This could be:
Fuel Filter
Put some good quality injection cleaner in the gas
Run premium gas
Vacuum leak, check all lines especially the brake vacuum booster line.
Intake plennum seal, AKA: Le Doughnut
Dirty MAF sensor
(Start with those)
