make sure the plugs, wires and spark gaps, cap and rotor are good before you go to bigger things.


I would say those are the number one reasons for choking in acceleration.

#32486 throttle body service.. clean it out nicely with air intake/ throttle body cleaner and a tooth brush.. then empty about half the can into ur motor while its on, make sure to unplug the MAS, you should feel a real diffrence after that :thumb:
