Slight hesitation...
Hey All....
Just a minor issue. I am experiencing a slight hesitation with my 00-GT Roush S-1 when I start it up. It doesn’t seem to what to idle as smooth. I don't have any major engine mods, just a K & N air filter. I’ve kept up on ALL general maintenance, plugs, oil changes, fuel system cleaned and all that. The last time I experienced this my mechanic said he just cleaned out the throttle body and that was it, so I did that this evening, on my own and it seemed to be pretty dirty. But it didn’t seem to make as much of a difference as it did last time and it hasn’t been but a few months since it was done last. Is there any thing else I should be checking??? I also run 93 octane 95% of the time, could this be causing the hesitation as well?
Thanks for your help/suggestions!

RE: Slight hesitation...
id put in a msd blater 2 coil. its about $35 and will get rid of hesitation. before i installed mine, my car idled terribly. rpm's went up and down and the car shook a bit. now the idle is extremely smooth and the car doesnt shake at all. also, i have no hesitation at all.
just a thought.

RE: Slight hesitation...
I cleaned the control motor and at least it didn't die when I cranked it over the first time, a plus, but it still doesn't seem as crisp as before. I only have 56,000 on it. And what is this TPS senor you say to adjust to .95v? I have had this control motor cleaned once before and I noticed a big difference after that, so is it possible this one has just crapped out?
Thanks...
