    stuttering at 40mph

    it seems when im driving at about 40 mph the power seems to cut out alomost like its not getting fuel. it also does in when cornering. replaced the fuel filter. any ideas on what it could be? fuel pump maybe. 2004 mm black and 85k

    COP(s) maybe.

    If it is not the ignition coils, When is the last time you had the transmission flushed. My first Marauder started to act funny and the transmission service solved one problem. Or was it the new spark plugs? When did your replace the spark plugs last? Spark plugs can last 100,000 if you drive all freeway, but many cars have stop and go traffic. I replaced my Marauder's plugs at 65,000 miles. Read about the cautions in spark plug replacement as the heads are aluminum. Jim
