Looking for some member input...
I've been experiencing some strange stuff at times when cruising then I try to accelerate. If I ease it REAL slow on the gas pedal, I won't notice it as much. But if I push down the gas a little faster than completely easing it, the RPMs'll shoot up with a with noticeable lack of power/ acceleration & the car will just make a reving noise & it feels like the engine just fell on its face.
Now off the line, I don't notice any symptoms. Most of my driving is normal street driving to & from work & running errands & going out around where I live. From a dead stop, I can ease it off a stop/ light to about 20 then just lay into it & get it up to about 40-45mph. It'll go through most of 2nd gear with none of the above symptoms until I have to let off due to posted speed limits.
Any thoughts about the symptoms described in the 1st part? Is this normal? Could this be a trans issue? Traction/ tires issue? Belt slip? Spark blow out? Fuel pump fueling issue? Boost control?
Lol I know I just listed 10 diff things but I dunno, what do you guys think?
Look in my sig for my mods. I had an engine swap done ~2 years ago. Using the same rebuilt trans from before the swap. It doesn't ALWAYS do the above. Just at times. What about that torque converter part? Could that possibly also be the culprit?? From what I recall, my car did the same thing in the past even BEFORE the engine swap.
