Im at a loss here. Can anyone help?
I just replaced both valve cover gaskets, all ignition coils, fuel filter, plugs, pcv valve, cleaned TB, and cleaned air filter. Now the car runs perfect except every once in a while the car just jerks(feels like it hestitates but RPM's stay where they are). When I had a bad coil the RPM's would go down a few hundred and back up again. When I give it a little gas it makes a weird sound from that valve behind that little black orb looking thing. Its hard to describe but it sounds like a gurgling sound. Im not sure what that valve is but its the one you need to take off to get at the back right coil. Also when my pcv valve was bad it would stall when cold but i replaced it today and all seems fine and the car feels like it has more pep to it. I just dont know why its still feels like its hesitating.

as long as your 4th gen manual has a turbo or supercharger you have a deal....anyway i noticed 2 more things tonight. It only happens when the car is very cold or when going up a hill. Any thoughts?

dying fuel pump?
Have you tightened the throttle cableto remove any excess play(sometimes it gets loose and pretty much sticks slightly)
