Well I had another thread on this problem and I thought it was my spark plug wires that I just installed because the problem seemed to start right after i did the plug install. Well I thought it was the walbro fuel pump because it gets so loud and the sound keeps changing and getting higher. The problem seemed to be gone until today I floored it to get over and sure enough the hesitation and power loss & jerking began again. Then I drove it for 3-5 seconds and it stopped. So I poped the hood and looked at the engine, wires plugs sensor connections ect, and I found that if I touch my a/c idle control valve and the vacum lines that go to it the car starts to die and then kills. I am thinking when I give wot the engine moves and this is picking up the ac idle valve and the vacum lines like when I touched them with my hand and it killed the same is happening when the engine moves. Any one know about a a/c idle control valve and the vacum lines. Mine has a air sound coming out of it. Its the bolt and spring with vacum lines going to it, not sure the correct name of it

yea its normal for the engine to die a little bit...but nothing crazy..pull the lines off and sand the rust and **** off so you have a clean neck to connect the hose....then go buy some hose clamps...you defentially need clamps for all the vac lines....see if they have the kind where you press with a pair of pliers rather then the screw kind...its a little more clean and there easier...put everything back on with good conections and see if that makes a difference
