at full throttle, a strange hesitation at around 4300 rpm?

on hard acceleration (WOT) around 4300 rpm my car... makes a VERY slight "bump" that is barely noticeable... any ideas? will the KS do this? i know the KS won't trigger a light, but if i run codes it SHOULD come up if its bad, right? any ideas on this wacky hesitation?

R. Lee Ermy - you should see him play a gay gym teacher in "saving Silverman" or an arsehole boss in "williard". Although i suggest you wait till the movie comes to TV, it's not even worth renting.

I got the same thing happening to my car lately. I dont think it happens all the time and I havent really thought anything of it, but now that you mentioned it I am alittle worried. I hope someone knows what is happening. BTW what is KS?

Also lately I have had this weird sound come from my car when I go to start it up from cold. If I have been running it recently then I dont get the sound but if its cold, the very first sound I hear when going to start it up is very weird. I was thinking it was my starter....any ideas?

Ya, that wierd noise (kind of whistling/high pitched whine) that you get right after your start up, is from the starter. My dad has the same problem (91,xxx) and I think mine'll start sounding off soon too. It either needs to be greased up or replaced...that's about all I can say.

Its gonna start happening more and more often, and its gonna start killing all of your power, Its Back Firing, It could be one or more of a lot of things, Bad Sensor, SparkPlugs, Ignition Coils, For me its the first two, I have to put my stock intake back on before I can get anything done @ the stealership, Good thing I got that Extended Waranty,
