  • Sensative Accleration?

    Ive noticed that when my car is just starting to warm up, the idle is a little rough.
    After I let the car warm up for 30 seconds - 1 minute or so, when I go to leave, after the car shifts into second gear, it loses power only for a second or so. Its almost as if I took my foot off of the gas breifly. It only does this the first one or two times then it os normal the rest of the time.
    Does anyone know what the problem might be?
    Thanks

      Had the fuel filter checked two days ago when I had my oil changed. They said it looked fine.

          Clean out throttle body?
          Maf sensor?

          Those both come to mind as things that might get gunked up and then cause a loss of power momentarily.

              Ill have my MAF cleaned up then when I get my tune up done.
              I have an AutoTech CAI in my car. The MAF sensor is right in plain sight
