2.3 Hesitates when first accelerating
I have a 2.3 mustang that hesitates or runs rough when you first accelerate. This happens from a dead stop or if car is cruising at low speed and step on it. I have replaced PCV valve and was looking for any other input to problem.

Hi,
Is the CEL on? If so, retrieve the codes and get back to us
If not, when was the last time the basic maintenance was performed, such as plugs, wire ect? Did you try cleaning the MAF? (depending on the year).

Interesting! I was having the same problem...up until my freaking engine cut off while I was on the interstate. Turns out the timing belt broke, another belt had a crack, the rotar button split, spark plugs were bad....anyways, we replaced all of that Sunday. Now it drives better than ever before! Just get a full tune-up and check all of your belts. It's probably timing.
