- I have an '84 Pontiac 6000STE with a 2.8l V6 (normally-aspirated) that has some
- behavior I'd like to better understand (and get fix, if needed.) If I try to
- accellerate "hard" from a stopped position (e.g. flooring the throttle,) there
- is a distinct lag in the engine's response. It will actually take a second or
- two to start building significant RPMs. Things seem to be more responsive if
- I don't floor the pedal but rather depress it more smoothly. The car runs
- fine, otherwise, with reatively quick response to throttle inputs while the
- car is already in motion. Any answers?
-
- Thanks!
