as i began to accelerate as long as i dont let off the gas it is alright, but if i let off the gas between 40-55 mph my car gets real sluggish.. anyone else have this problem? or anyone know how to fix it? i was thinking that maybe it is shifting to earlier, could this be it?

maybe your e brake sticking, i would check that first, is your brake light on? -
Is it like if your cruising at 40 and then try to accelerate it kinda chugs, like you were in a manual car driving around in the wrong gear?
I had that same dam problem it was my plugs/wire as well an exhaust leak.

it has always done this, even right after new plugs and wires, but yeah it would seem like in a manual in wrong gear, that is why i suggested maybe it is shifting too early..1997 Camaro RS<br /><br />3\" Flowmaster Exhaust,Pacesetter headers,Catco Cat,Cold Air Intake,Clear bumper lights altezzas,chrome rear bumper letters,chrome badges, headlight conversion kit(soon to come),2 12 MTX Thunder 8000, MTX 6500d amp, Fosgate 1 farad capComment

I think mine does that sometimes, if I accelerate slowly it clicks into Over Drive around 50MPH, sometimes if I'm crusing and dont gas it hard enough to click into 3rd it will chug along for a while.~chris~ 98 Cayenne red Camaro 3800 A4, 3:08, T tops Borla cat-back, wisper lid K&N, Bilstine shocks, Dunlops all around. <br />AOL IM: chevyboyz24Comment

I'm no expert, but maybe try some fuel injector cleaner or possibly changing the plugs and wires. If you haven't changed the air filter in awhile I suppose it would kill your acceleration. It sounds like a fuel problem to me though. Just some suggestions, hope it helps.1998 A4 Pontiac FirebirdComment

I’m new. I actually don’t own a Camaro or firebird. I do have a 2000 Camaro 3.8 fly by throttle and 4l60e. This is installed in a 1980 Triumph TR7...1 week ago -
