Hesitation - - awang44 - 08-01-2006

My 01 wagon started to hesitate today while i was driving with 2nd-4th gear about 1500-3000 rpm at constant speed. the idle is fine. while car in neutral, it seems to be fine when i kept the rpm at 1500-2500.
I had the the fuel pump/ fuel filter replaced about 2 years ago and fuel filter 1 year ago. i also check that harness which seems to be OK.

thanks.



any suggestion?

pretty sure that fuel filter should be replaced at least once a year. I'd check that out 1st since its a 20 min job and you can pick up the part at most CT's.

i believe the fuel filter is recomended every 20k. ive been doing mine every 15k.

:o I thought I read in the service manual every 100K?

I am probably wrong though...

hmm I am having the same problems as I noticed recently... thought it was the feul pump...

check fuel pump... don't go through the same misery as me!


Hesitation - - awang44 - 08-02-2006

hum... i only had about 40k after fuel pump recall and about 15k after last fuel filter replacement. they go out that fast? and i notice the fuel consumption is getting worse now. half a tank only gets about 180km.

appreciate all of your suggestion :lol:
