I have a all motor LS automatic. I have had the thing tuned 3 times and $1000 later I still have the same problem. I has a huge hessitation like the rev. limiter during the first 3K rpms. I have checked all vaccum, replaced intake gasket, and checked all the sensors. I have no check engine light. Anyone have any advice.

 

Why the hell would you put sugar in your tank?

check your ecu

 

that is what i was thinking b/c i had my rev. limiter removed!!!!!!

The exhaust byproducts and sugar fuse, to form an aroma similar to that of donuts. This causes policeman to go into a state of confusion. Leaving just enough time to make an escape.

 

try pancake syrup
and let us know how much power it adds!

 

find a better tuner!

LMAO Now thats funny stuff.

It's probably an ecu or distributor problem...

 

A good fuel filter would catch all the sugar.

LMAO!!!!

 

Thanks for the help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

hesitation at 3k is most likely your timing.

 

wouldn't the gas dissolve the sugar? i've gotten gas on my greasy 'worked on the car' hand before, and the grease came right off. I imagine sugar would be no match for pressurized gasoline.

On a serious note, yes, it's probobly your timing. Make sure your cam(s) and crank are lined up correctly. Cam gears like to slip a tooth or two on the timing belt when you rev too high.

By the way, removing your rev limiter is useless on a stock engine. It's there for a reason. Cam gears slip, and valvetrains blow up when you exceed the engines redline. Besides, you don't even make power up there anyways. It's not like Honda had to rev limit the engine because people were getting air on freeway on ramps.

You are correct, the sugar would dissolve in the gas. It is harmless to the engine.
