Default lude is hesitating from stop

ok, here's the symptoms... it does not happen all the time but it happens often enough to be really annoying.

whenever i drive the car normally from a stop, the car will to hesitate at lower rpms maybe around 2,000-3,500. It feels like it boggs down, kinda like when you dont give it enough gas. And when i shift to 2nd it will do it again until i really rev it. My solution to this for now is to rev it high enough before i get the car moving.

I've noticed this to start happen when i found out my PCV connector on the engine got disconnected. I reconnected it again but it still happens. And it happens more and more with the A/C on. But now it also happens with the A/C off...

This also occurs when i down shift going down to 2nd after driving on the freeway or something... which in turn i just step on the gas until it stops doing it and the car gets moving again smoothly.

Thanks for your help

You know what? I've been having the same problems, but I didn't think much of it. Now to think of it, when the AC's on and when u try to accelerate from 2000 RPM to 3000 RPM or so in third gear, the car just kinda doesn't wanna go. Anyone know what's wrong? This didn't happen before. If there really is a problem, then i want to get it fixed asap also. Thanks.

Is your check engine light on? If so, see what code it is throwing, and you should have your answer there
