This just started occuring today but whenever i stop or get off the gas, in then get back on it it hesitates, like stops for a split second then starts going again. Its rainning like cats and dogs out if that has anything to do with? i dont know im young and dont know these things. if any one has any advice plese help. Thank you! dave284 Enthusiast Apr 4, 2008, 11:32 AM Post #2 of 3 (3746 views) Re: 1997 silverado-hesitation Sign In It almost sounds like the TPS switch, trottle position sensor...does the check engine light come on during the moment it happens? I've also seen dirty fuel filters cause this reaction. dmac0923 Enthusiast Apr 4, 2008, 1:38 PM Post #3 of 3 (3744 views) Re: 1997 silverado-hesitation Sign In like mentioned above, need to know if the check engine light is on and what codes are supplied. also when was the last time the plug wires were changed. i think that because you mentioned the heavy rain. next time its raining, and the car starts hesitating, get out and spray some WD40 on the plug wires. the wd40 will temporarily displace the moisture. if the solves the problem. the wires are bad, replace and good to go __________________________________________________ 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee 2002 Ford Ranger 2004 Toyota Corolla 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1   Email This Post   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
