Question

Answer 1

fuel filter plugged, throttle position sensor,throttle body needs cleaning

Answer 2

timing chain - how much play is on router

Answer 3

it might be that the gas filter is getting plugged up.

Answer 4

Ya, sounds like a dirty fuel filter.  Also for good measure, replace your spark plugs.

Answer 5

I start with vacuum hoses.  Check them first to be sure that they are tight and not cracked.

Answer 6

Muffler bearing.

Answer 7

Sounds like a fuel problem, especially since it is under a load, check the fuel filter or the fuel pressure. A MAP sensor would also cause the same symptom though, especially If it won&#039;t idle if it is a gas engine, not a diesel. I have seen broken pickup tubes on the fuel module also. Best bet is to check your fuel pressure if you have a fuel pressure guage. If not you need to take it to your local shop. Hope this helps.

Answer 8

When is the last time you changed fuel filters?

Answer 9

You have an injector problem. Should have check engine lite on with mis fire code. &quot;93 might be obd 1

Answer 10

Have the fuel pump pressure checked. It sounds like it is weak and not pumping eneff fuel when you step on the gas.
