Hey all,

The last couple days when i start my car in the moring and shift into second, my car seems to bog, like loose all power. If i shift back into 1st then drive for a bit and shift back it's all good. It only happens if the car sits over night, Anyone have this happen to them? It boged so much this morning i though it was going to stall + I smoked my face off the wheel. ( Your cool when this happens .. the ladies love it)

sounds similar to my problem. might be really retarded/pulled timing. i think i've narrowed my problem to that.

Hmm...

Ran any fuel injector cleaner lately? Or EVER?

Go get a can of B12 Chemtool when your tank is almost empty and stick it in there, then go fill with some decent gas.

How bout your plugs and wires? Checked them lately?

car still cold when you do this? Basically, if it is.. you are dumping enough gas into the cylinders that the little bit of heat the engine has is not enough to keep combustion going.. you are basically "bogging" the engine because the gas is too dense to ignite
