dropping a cylinder

[DeezNutsForYou]

I'm not sure but I think I'm dropping a cylinder. Sometimes I will be driving down the street at a slow speed and my car will just start to hesitate. It feels like its running on only 2 or3 cylinders. And its kink of speratic. Sometimes it will only hesitate for a quick second, but then it does it 4 or 5 times. Other times its a long hesitation. Almost like I let off the gas but not quite that dramatic. I haven't notices any similar things from one time to another. Is seems to do if sometimes after I get on it, but this could be just a quincedence. Because it doesn't happen every time after I accelerate. I don't know how else to describe it, exept for a small jerking.

I hope someone will know what the hell is wrong with my car. All I can guess is it must either be spark or fuel.

Get some new spark plugs, and some magnacor wires. IF that does not solve your problem, come back here.

Yes, definitely start with simple things, like plugs and wires (they probably need a change anyway) Stick with NGK for both, in my opinion, they're cheap, OEM, and work well.

If it's not those things, it could be anything from the ignition coils, to an ECU with leaking capacitors, to a clogged fuel filter, to a dying fuel pump... But start with the basics. The most simple explanation is usually the correct one.
