I got a 2gnt Talon that had the infamous oil leak from the head gasket, so I replaced with a Fel-Pro along with having a full valve job done and checked and decked.

Everything is now put back together in which I had a faulty injector that was constantly dumping fuel. No cylinder wash and compression is back up.

Replaced 4 injectors, fuel pump, fuel filter, IAC, MAP sensor, water pump and thermostat, and smog check valve. She idles perfectly, revs just fine with no sputter or issue.

Now when driving it seems she runs fine shifts fine (when the clutch res is full for whatever reason it's dumping), but when I get to 45-60 she sputters and hesitates. Once past that she runs smooth again but does kinda seem like she's lacking a lil bit of power. Any one got some ideas?

Had it at the shop the last 6 mo and they are stumped. CEL is on but cannot connect to SnapOn Solus or edge scanner. Read about fuses and checking pin 16 for power, still gotta do that.

Sorry. Yes changed spark plugs to ngk iridium, new plug wires, and coil pack. All injectors were replaced by a shop.
