Recently I had to step on the breaks a little harder than normal at a traffic stop. After the road was clear again, I stepped on my gas pedal and found my car revving but not going anywhere. It took about 1.5 seconds before it finally lurched forward.

My 90 v6 is responding normally again but I'd like to know what would cause this. Hoping to avoid having this happen again if possible.

Any thoughts?

Im going to move this to the 1995-2004 V6 section. They can help you out. Here you wont get to much response for this question.

Maybe your fuel injectors are clogged and need a little bit of a clean. There is a big list of things that could be the problem, here are a few I could think of;
1. Listen for your fuel pump priming
2. Check the pressure in the fuel rail
3. Injectors may need cleaning
4. Change your fuel filter
5. Throttle position sensor
6. Mass air flow sensor
7. Vacuum leak somewhere
