wait is it a fuel pump??? i thought that the fuel was delivered to the engine using pressure from the exhaust.

That would be the only reason you would have a lag for acceleration. besides its not exactly a sports car haha

Re: D3COY:

Maybe a little respect for those who are not self proclaimed mechanics like yourself ?

It could be any number of things including the fuel pump. Could be a clogged cat, dirty injectors, o2 sensor or other mechanical problem.

thinking the same thing. give it a tuneup if you haven't in a while and see what happens. i think these models have an external fuel filter. if it does change it if you haven't already.

I mean what i say in the best sense of humor. And no I most certainly am not a self proclaimed mechanic. Obviously I didn't realize there was a fuel pump.
