03 MSP - no mods - only a boost gage Car idles fine, but as I accellerate, it cuts out between 2850 and 3000 rpm continuously, but clears up between 3100 and 3200. It will continue to accelerate to 5000-6000, but sluggishly. Happens in all gears. I recently rebuilt my engine. Plugs and...

Hello all. I live in northeast CT. Got my MSP in Feb of 03. Today it has over 120,000 miles and a wonderful knock in the engine. I'm pretty sure it's a rod bearing. I am wondering if anyone local may have a 2.0 FS bottom end they are willing to sell or donate. If anyone can help, or...

Is it just me, or does there seem to be an abundance of Sticky Threads in the MSP section? I know this topic is being brought up at a bad time (everthing getting moved), and I'm not trying to be like "well, if we moved these threads....shouldn't we move the stickys too?"...it just seems to me...

Ok, dropped my car of for the Hesitation and the Clunk. Clunk...changed bushings, and wrapped the swaybar with teflon tape (been done before for other clunk complainers). Just what I expected. Hesitation (be prepared, I'm still venting, and I'll leave out details) District Customer Support...

Picked up my car this morning from the Service Dept. (in for the return of the clunk and the hesitation problem) Service Manager told me that they replaced the Bushings because they were worn...and I didn't push that much farther yet. Regarding the Hesitation, he said that there is still no...
