Car sputters and coughs when taking off from stop. Sign In

After my car warms up whenever I stop and try to accelerate again my car coughs and sputters like im out of gas but if i let up on the gas pedal and press it again it usually takes of right away. I have no problem starting it. And I have no problem on the highway when I shift gears its just when I try to accelerate from a dead stop.

Just a question for now as it can run fine apparently. Is this getting hot at stops?

Have you checked for codes yet? If not do it and post the code numbers here. OBD1 doesn't give as much detail as newer models but might have some info.
