Car becomes very sluggish in the mid range of 1st and 2nd gear. Would that be fuel related? When RPM's start to climb im good then a hesitation and then goes again just fine until the shift comes then does it again. The plugs can't be but a year old, do they really wear that quickly?

Also if anyone has BFG's for the rear that would be willing to sell. Don't mind a little wear, just missing one from a complete set from a buddy at the LM dealer. Thanks for any trouble shooting in advance.

Their have been alot of threads like this recently. Most were bad coils, do a search and see what you find

Or the old "Try cleaning the MAF sensor". Start with the easy stuff first. Air filter, MAF, throttle sticking, vacuum leaks, EGR, IAT....

Mine did what you described for about 8 months till I changed out the fuel pump. Do you have datalogging capabilities? If so, check FPDC at WOT and report back or if your near Wheaton, IL, I take paypal LOL Stop on by!

Mine just started doing this. I cleaned the throttle body (Filthy!) and then the MAF as well. Seems to help alot.
