so i realized the past week and a half my car feels kinda drowned lets say when i try to punch it in first gear it feels like its taking forever to speed up kinda like a lag and then when i switch to 2nd it feels the same till like after 3000 rpm it kinda feels like sumthing blocking it back pressure? i have no clue. it feels like when u have the AC on anddrive like it loses power in a way or when the emergency brake is up. i also noticed the other day that i had my emergency brake up maybe like 4 or 5 click and i tried putting it into gear the car actually moved with no problem. do u guys think it can be that? or an airfilter? or a tune up? or even bad gas, sum1 told me to use one of those fuel injector cleaner? anything really i jus wanna see wat u guys think

please help me out thanx in advanced everybody

 

when IS the last time u changed ur filter..?

 

How many miles do you have on your car, when was the last tune up, how often do you get a tune up, and what did you/they do on the tune up.

It's hard to diagnose a car problem over the internet, but I would make a guess that you need to change the air filter, engine oil, transmission fluid, and also tighten up the e-brake.

Also, and I'm not sure if this applies to this situation, but the A/C draws A LOT of the power from the car.

 

do u have a CAI... cuz sometimes my coupler becomes loose and i get a lag.

 

my car has 64k on it, ive never had a tune up i always chaneg my oil every 5k and i have not changed my tranny fluid yet but want to i jus dont trust myself. and i have no clue how to tighten the e brake

it feels exactly how the car would drive when the ac is on.

i have yet to change the air filter on my car. ive had my short ram intake for about 30k could it be that? should i try and buy a new air intake filter?

 

I recently had a bout with bad gas and did pretty much the same thing for the exception that in idle on a cold start up the rpms would bounce up and down slightly and when reved it would bog down then pick back up. if this is the case pm me and ill walk you through how to check and rectify the situation.

 

i think that migth be the case. but my car doesnt really idle funny when i start the car rpms dont bounce up or down or anything. i used a 108 octane boost last nite whiole filling up and the car drove fine perfect but before that my gas was at about a quarter left and the car felt like it was losing power maybe it could be bad gas thats still left in there. but as soon as i put the ocatne boost it felt better. and then this morning when i tried driving it again it kinda felt like it started all over again

 

when i droped my tank i found water and alot of trash that had setteled to the bottem of the tank.........i personaly would not keep driving my car like that hence why i emptyed my tank. to check for water and trash youll need to get underneith the car and find the fill tube entering the tank, loosen up the worm drive clamp(keep a bucket underneith it) and pull that hose off of the tank and see what comes out. Alot of times if their has been alot of trash and water entering the tank on your last fill up a butt load of that crap will collect in the fill tube. if youve already filled up again then im not sure you may find anything.

 

hmm thanx alot im defiantly gonna check that out i figured it was bad gas and ____ in the tank
