sometimes when i accelerate, usually in first gear, my car lags on pickup really bad. i was told it was my fuel injectors, but after replacing them all and checking them from time to time, they seem fine, im guessing its my clutch but not sure, or maybe there is another way to check injectors that im not sure about. Any suggestions?

 

your clutch would probably need to slip in order for it to be the cause, my guess is its fuel/spark related...try a tune up (cap/rotor/plugs/wires) also, when is the last time you changed the timing belt?

 

its spark related, get a new ignition coil or replace the whole damn dizzy

 

if you get new plugs and wires make sure you get some NGK's not bosch.

 

He's my friend. He got new plugs around the same time as the injectors. Not sure about plugs I'll take a look tomorrow

 

Get some injector cleaner on a empty tank.....Makes a big difference in the line not just the injectors and if not it's just good maitanance.........

Already done, didn't do anything lol

 

Check your coil system..mine had the same problem..let it idles..and if it seems like its missfiring then its your coil sys.

yeah, seems like a coil problem. if you already replaced the spark plugs, wires etc.. then my only guess would be the coil.

 

check your timing....

 

air filter....?

 

low fuel pressure?

I'm pretty sure its not misfiring, but we'll probably do the coil system anyway.

I'll put my gauge on his today and see if its low. It should be at like 35-40ish with the hose right?

that's what your suppoesed to do.... right before you fill up your tank with gas

 

oil in spark plugs

 

i thought you meant only running injector clean....no gas, my bad

 

Check the fuel pressure. Might need a new filter or the whole pump too.
