    Car Hesitates...

    my car never exhibited any hesitation until I parked it and let it sit for 8 days. When I returned from the trip and started it, the hesitation/bogging/missfire became very evident on the first loop around the block, and has been doing it for a month. I've been doing research on this problem...
