HELP

I believe my Z is running a little rich and want some help. I have got it booked in for service on 21st but that's a little way off.

Anyway, the car is an auto, and is currently idling at nearly 1300 rpm. When you put it in drive it drops to about 800 rpm but when you release the brake and touch the accelerator the revs drop as though it is going to stall and then stutters a lttle pulling away and the whole car is vibrating more than normal and seems to be low on power.

Anyone have any suggestions. I think it may be misfiring as well. I personally have no idea about auto's.

Thanks for any help.

not 100% sure but to me sounds like a hesitation problem,have a look here similar problems http://zhome.com/ZCMnL/PICS/hesitation/hesitation.html

 

like i say possible not 100% sure,although can be hard to pinpoint whats causing it

try resetting the ECU, disconenct the battery for around an hour and then reconnect it and it will relearn, also do an ECU check

Check the temperature sensor (and the connector for oxidation)
