Icon6 Weird issue when accelerating

Sometimes when I accelerate from first gear and I give it gas it does not want to climb in RPM's past 2k. So, I start trying to give it more gas, but then it feels like something is holding it back. From there I put it in second gear so I can start high reving so it won't happen and sometimes it goes away by doing that or shutting off the car. I really don't know what's causing it and it happens occasionally. However, when it does happen it's really retarded and makes me look like I don't know how to drive my car. You know how when noobs first try to learn to drive a stick shift the cars just kind bounces.

It's a stock 2001 GSR. Now I can be totally wrong but I have a feeling it's the throw out bearing because it's already squeaking really bad. But that's just a guess.

agreed. stutering on take off acceleration is a symptom of a bad throttle position sensor.. you can easily check the sensor with an OHM meter. do you have an resistance meter or acess to one?

Check that and the dizzy. Theres several parts inside that can contribute to that problem so pull up the ignition trouble shooting guide and follow the steps. Should be in one of the stickies at top of forum.
