i had a problem with mostly witht the same problems on my 98 gst.. do u get a check engine light? if so get the code.. mine said it was a lean mixture and the second code was a rich mixture.. found out it was my camshaft position sensor
 
Well after this issue started happening I thought it was the fuel pump. So I took it out and swapped. And the gauge never worked after that. It seemed like the float lever thing on the fuel pump was hard to move.
 
my 2g had the same problem for some time last winter..it would take two or three cranks to get it started in cold and hesitates when i was on the throttle at idle..turns out my CTS connector came off. slide the sensor back in and BAM!
 
Well scratch the MAF, I measured the resistance on the actual sensor, but I re checked it and it is reading now. So I took the PCV off and tried to rattle it and it doesnt, its sticking so im going to try and clean it. I dont think this would cause such a big problem would it?
 
I cleaned the positive crankcase venilation and the car started up quicker and ran a little better but I am going to drive it to my other place cause I have moved and ill let yall know if there is any improvement. Also going to pressurize the waste gate to see if it opens. Also going to check the purge control valve today.
