sffans Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 My car has a rough idle and it hesitates when accelerating. Once you get going it runs like a champ. It also kinda bucks when driving sometimes. Does anybody have any suggestions? Thanks Alot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slingblade9 Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 My cadillac used to do the same thing. Does your car smoke alot on startup? Could be the headgasket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eelzen Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 check timingMAF (Mass Air Flow) sensor may need replace and especially throttle body probably needs to be cleaned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infin1ty Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 I am actually having the same problem, I believe mine was caused when I was getting bad misfires last week, think it may have done something to my catalytic converter. *EDIT* Alright, found out what my issue was. When I was checking out my air filter I disconnected one of the hoses on my filter enclosure, so if you may want to check out all of you connections.
