hello, i have a 98 GSX w/ 75k w/ an auto, i've had it for about 2 months,and i notice when i hit the gas, the car like shtutters and and takes like 5-10 sec to find the the right RPM, when i bought thr car the guy said he had trans worked done.. its like when i floor the gas usually around 4 grand it does something weird, like hold their for asecond then goes but takes a while usally up hills and when its cold out, doesnt happen when its warm out, i just bought spark plugs and wires some people told me it would be my o2 sensor housing, or maybe my torque converter, any advice would help, i am sure i am loosing a lot of power!!!!!and i want it back :cry: :cry:
thanks
 
This sounds more like an engine performance problem. I would explore that possibility first.

there's like been 20 threads in the passed 2 weeks about this. Regap your plugs and unhook the battery for 10 minutes and every thing should go back to normal. I was having the same problem, the guy gapped my plugs at 42 instead of 32 and it drove like shit when boost started to turn on, or at wot. Give this a shot, it should work :thumb:
