Hey guys….

So I drove the car early Sunday morning through the canyons like every Sunday morning…
First of all… when you drive the car normally, no problems at all… But when you start to push it, Like I do every Sunday morning… after a minute or two it starts to putter and looses power… feels like it’s not getting enough fuel ??? …. It happens in 1st 2nd and 3rd gear… I then slow down a bit and after a couple of minutes it drives normal again,,, I then start to push it and the problem comes back… This problem has never happened before…

Im going to Willow Springs this coming Saturday and I really, really, really want to solve this problem before then… please...

I was thinking that I can pick up the car any morning and test drive it to work if that helps you guys… ??? I would just have to have my wife pick up the key the evening before…

Please help me :)

Thanks

Charles

p.s. On a side note Mark… I tried the turn key partially on then off, then on , then off a few times… Then I tried to start the car up… same problem, did not make any difference…
But the following mooring I turned the key all the way as if I was starting the car but quickly turned it off again… then I tried starting the car normally and it cranked right over no problem…
It;s like it really doesn’t like the very first start of the morning …:) Oh well… minor problem compared to the above…

 drove car today... vacuum leak fixed a lot including the need to wait under 2,000 rpm to disengage gear so it doesn't idle high... That fuck'n Linh mechanic is worthless...  anyways... also no problems getting into gear... except for one new issue... 1st gear is a little hard to get into ???? replaced the 2nd shift cable to OEM, didnt fix the problem but Im happier having OEM then MR2 Heaven... also changed transmission fluid...
