A Little Help here...

[supersoldier71]

I just got a '99 Cobra Convertible...I love it! But sometimes when I get on the gas it hesiates, and sometimes it stalls. The condition lasts until I get home, then when I let it cool down, it's fine. I've driven over a hundred miles and nothing happened, but today, I drove the same distance it it started doing it again. And again, a few hours later it was fine. I think it's the gas I used...Exxon and Chevron seemed to work fine...Sunoco was a no go. I really hope this is not an expensive problem. Maybe like a (sometimes) clogged fuel filter or something. Any ideas?

Thanks

Try checking the MAF and see if it's calibrated correctly

I seriously doubt that the MAF cal has anything to do with it. If anything it may be a dirty MAF. supersoldier71, change the fuel filter, check the spark plugs, and clean the MAF with some good electrical cleaner. Let us know how it turns out.

Well, the Ford Dealer is gonna do the 24k service tomorrow...I'l be on a 24 hour shift guarding the skies over the Nation's Capitol, so another soldier from my detachment (he's got a '96 2V Pony with long tube headers, full exhaust, cold air intake and a 4.10 rear) will be taking the car in. Hopefully we'll figure out wassup.
