Got a question though.



Since the problems with the spark plugs (changing them when i get home tomorrow) - is there any reason why my car is having poor (or slow) throttle response? Is it my TPS? It feels as if it's losing power. I want to know what else is happening. I hate this loss of power.....again. The first time it happened was when I first got her and it was surging.....



Any one know?

Of course its the TPS, you forgot the covers again.



I would wait and put in the new plugs and see if it still persists.

Oh, well I didn't know it would be the cause of the TPS (wel, I did, but not all.. I suppose). Thanks. I just wanted to ask before I went and changed them tomorrow.
