ok i on my stang i am loosing horsepower really bad right now and cant figure out why. i have very bad acceleration and while driving i get a hesitation. does anyone know what the problem could be?

 

how many miles on ur car?
what yr?

this will help determine the problem easier

 

alot of miles...120k... 2002

 

when are u havin these problems, right away, after drivin a lil, only when its really hot/cold???
at wot? around town cruising?

 

yeah around town cruisin. it starts right away and i just cant get that horsepower i need aha. temp does not affect it. i changed the air filter cause it was really dirty but that didnt work..

 

clean you MAF and do a tune up...most likely it something small.. run a bottle of techron from a parts store.

 

ok i really dont know how to do that cause im young and just getting into mods and crap. whats a maf???

 

the maf is a mass air flow sensor, take apart ur air box where the filter is and its in there, it kinda looks like a throttle body but without a valve, u wanna spray that little filiment wire down with electrical cleaner that u can get at an auto parts store, be carefull not to break the wire, so dont touch it

 

ok thanks ill do that....
