Default 00 Accord hesitation when acclerating

So, having a slight hesitation and jerk when accelerating. Although, it does it from a stop it does it more consistently when accelerating from a low speed (in 1st gear).

Recently the following maintenance has been done
-new cat
-new plugs
-new wires
-new cap and rotor
- timing belt (timing is good)
-recently bled coolant
- new rear o2 sensor
-cleaned throttle body
-drain and fill of the AT 3x over (althought I am also dealing with flares in gears in 2-3 shift)

Check Engine Light but its the all annoying EVAP System leak canister side P1457

Is this transmission related?

Although, there are many threads talking about jerking on accleration there arent many speaking of the 6th gen accord.

Thanks in advance.
Mason

are the valves really loud ? could just need a valve adjustment

if no valve noise you can try seafoaming to test for an exhaust leak, looking anywhere from the exhaust manifold to the oxygen sensor for white smoke billowing out especially if the s;park plugs were fuel fouled

I assume you have an automatic?

These autos are absolutely worthless. Very possible to be the issue.

That being said, first place to start is always the CEL.


Another thing I could do is pull off and clean the intake. I just did mine and with 205k miles, I could feel a HUGE difference in acceleration after cleaning.
