Everytime that i put the petal to the floor, my acceleration hesitates for about 3 secs, then goes. Wouldn't that be the fuel injecters, or would it be the belts. Thanx

clutch.. its most likely your clutch..if your fuel injectors were bad u would know..maybe im wrong but thats the same thing that happened to me before my clutch went..

Kick down one or 2 gears when doing that.. or press a little smoother.. until the RPM reaches higher number.

the mx3 i have is a automatic. I wish it was a stick, so can you think of what it would be.

i dont know..but isnt that with all automatic..when u stomp it. it delays for a few seconds.

i think so but it just seems like it's lagging more than it normaly does. What would happen if i put new fuel injectors in my car, cause it has around 115k miles. I bet the've never been changed.

if your injectors r the problem then it would help if u change them..but automatics kill hp so when u stomp it..most automatics take a few secs to kick in unless u have some sort of forced induction. there is a way to see if u fuel injectors r at blame. take the fuel injectors out one by one and turn over the car when u pull each one out and the one or ones that have less gas or no gas come out of it..should be replaced..also have u tried the fuel injector cleaner?

no i havn't but i will. Thank you very much for the help i really appreciate it.!!!!

I had the auto tranny in my car, it never hesitated on me when I'd tromp on it. It would take a half second to kick down a gear (if I didn't have it locked & shift manualy), but thats about it.
Dirty injectors can cause a serious bog tho, always a good idea to have them cleaned professionaly every few thousand miles. Alot cheaper than replacing them all at any rate. Places like Jiffy-Lube can do it for a decent price.
Might wanna look at getting the tranny flushed too with all those miles on it. Old burned up fluid will cause issues with shifting & slippage of the clutches.

I would check your timing if it hesitates I just advanced my timing and I get off the line pull feels good .... well better haha
