Default Car hesitates on Acceleration. Dont flame, Search is down.


Search function is down and I know there are many topics on this one, but I need to know quick ...

Car hesitates during acceleration, doesn't want to accelerate freely, it feels like I'm towing a Semi behind me. Every gear.
Swapped Cylinder heads and the crank timing is off a Tooth. Cams are at TDC marks. I feel that my Distributor is also off, but not sure.
Car starts and drives, but hesitated to accelerate really Badly. Any input ??????

Under normal cirmunstances ... I would do a Search on this, but beleive me I have tried like 15 times and no luck. H-T servers are off on timing, someone tune this ****. Thanks.

If your crank timing is off a tooth, that's like being off 3-4 teeth on the camgears.

Re-time everything correctly and put it back together.

I can't believe you even tried to drive it like that.

Fix the timing.
