96 2.4L hesitation @ low rpms
Monday, October 26, 2009 4:14 PM
I have a 96 2.4L cavalier and for some reason when i take off @ a gradual pace it hesitates @ low rpms to about 2400 and then drives fine. However if i mash the gas down from take off it accelerates fine. The car idles normally and doesn't have a CEL. I replaced the fuel pump about a year ago, just changed the fuel filter/ air filter. i am guessing the iac, map, tps, iat are good since there is no cel. Any suggestions on what could be the cause of the problem?

I am having the same phantom problem man. I have no C.E.L. and cannot figure out why it is hesitating so bad before 3k RPM . Here is where I am going to start. It is a article regarding No Trouble Code Problems. Pretty good info from what I have seen so far.

I also thought it was fuel related and had my buddies shop hook up a mechanical fuel pressure guage and it is reading good pressure at idle and up high is 60psi. I thought maybe it was that Sock thing clogged thats attached to the pump causing a problem in a specific operation range.

I should note that the car is running extremely lean regardless of the pressure of fuel going in according to my wideband. It is reading 18-20 AFR at idle . Should be 14.7 like it was before, I haven't changed any tuning with HP Tuners and I know that my injector constant is correct.

Now my idle started going crazy so my first assumption is a faulty Throttle Position Sensor, but why no PO122 or PO123 Code ???TPS Low Voltage & or TPS High Voltage... I hate to buy the damn sensor only to find out thats not the problem
