Gentlemen,
I've seen in the archives mention of a couple usual suspect hoses underneath the air filter cover. I need to go in there and take a look for some false air. may or may not be anything, but I'd like to see where everyone has had issues in the past.
I've had my car for about 4 weeks now. Love it! Having driven many V8's in the past, never a stick it's just a totally different drive. Just put about 450 hgwy miles on it over the holiday wknd, average mpg 23.8 at 75 loaded down with the A/C blowing full blast. Can you say Torque?
I still have some slight surging under light acceleration, also right at start up it will hunt for about 2-3 seconds until it settles down. No idle fluctuation otherwise. I've done a few things already, FPR, ignition wires, o2 sensor, all filters. Would like to take a look at any air lines that seem to have been culprits for anybody else.
So, which lines should I be checking out? Glady take any other advice on things to check for the "surge". I've read the archives, seems everyone has their own version of how to address this Thang!
Most appreciated!
