reffering to holding back, mine was doing that also and it was my cat, it was all clogged and chit, so i ditched it and put a straight pipe in place of it and its ran great ever since.....although mine is quite a bit newer and with a different engine...99 3.8 camaro\"there are things known, and things unknown, and inbetween are the doors\"-jim morrison<br /><br /> <a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/id/99NBMCamaro\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/id/99NBMCamaro</a>

Re: 88 chevy 2.8
same with me my cat was bad and I wielded a new one in and havent had that problem since. Im 91% sure thats it, but if it isnt check Ure EGR...if tha check engine light is on cause of the hesitation Im sure you'll get a EGR failcodeDrive it like I stole it

Re: 88 chevy 2.8
I agree it's probably the cat. The holding back, and then taking off when you lift off the gas a little seem to be common symptoms of a clogged cat.
