When accelerating through 1st, 2nd, and 3rd gear in my 96 5spd, I feel the car sort of studdering. Seems like there's air in the fuel system. I'll accelerate, then studder studder, accelerate, etc....through each gear. Could my problem be a fuel filter, fuel pump, injector, ?.....or does it even have anything to do with the fuel system at all?

Does your CEL come on at all? It could be somethign with the fuel system.. then again it could be a sensor or electrical part going bad.. stuttering on acceleration is a coil pack thing.

Isn't stuttering on acceleration a coilpack thing?

Yes did you not read my post?

that happened to me a few weeks ago... mines an automatic. turned out to be the fuel injectors.

No, my CEL does not come on. It doesn't even studder hard, just a little bit, but I can feel it. I know its just gonna get worse if I don't take care of it soon. Plus, I bet it has something to do with the regular gas I've been using since summer. I just got a new job, so I can start using premium again.

Guess not. I read it kinda quick and I thought I got the whole thing, but I guess I missed the end.

Gotcha
