HELLO ALL!!!
i have bought my first SC, and wanted to ask a ? about my car. when i accelerate easy the car sounds like its missing slightly and has a rough sound and feel to it, when i accelerate hard it totally starts cutting out like someone was turning the ignition off and on really fast. it will do this a few times as it accelerates. some of the things i know the car had done to it- solid rubber mounts, bhj balancer, 75mm maf, new spark plugs and wires, EGR valve, DPFE sensor, cold air intake, short throw shifter, free flow cat, new 02 sensor, throw out and pilot bearing, the block is from a 90 xr7, with the original 95 top end on it (the old blocks harmonic balancer went out i am told this is the SC's achilles heel). it seems like when the guy i bought it from rebuilt it he did a good job on it but who knows...oh ya the car is a 95 manual. i really like the car but want it to run right. so if anyone has any ideas that would be great. my mechanic friend thinks its a THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR......
thanks
