Full throttle hesitation?

If steady throttle at 3500 RPM then 'floor it' in 3rd, 4th, or 5th, there is a hesitation that never really clears until releasing throttle part way. If 'flooring it' from 2000 RPM or less, problem is not apparent throughout. Any thoughts as too what the problem is?

Yea, I would do a bit of research before listening to the first person...

there are a few good threads with a little bit of searching...

There are a few common problems people have had with the same issue and different results. Although it maybe your MAF, it could be your coils, or even a fuel supply problem...

As much as you like to have a quick and easy answer to your problem... There have been countless people on countless forums that have dumped hundreds and even thousands on people opinions without a proper diagnostics.

Do youself a favor and use that search feature and do a little bit of reading before you go out and spend the dough...

Good Luck

If you are going to buy a MAF, don't be cheap and get an OEM MAF. It will save you in the long run.
