Engine Hesitation When You Accelerate? We Find the Cause
A pause or stumble when you press the gas can come from fuel, air, ignition, or the transmission trying to protect itself. It is easy to mistake one for another, so we test to confirm which system is actually falling behind before recommending a repair, for Lynchburg and Forest drivers.
