1999 Lumina Idling problems & Etc.


  

Mjd -> 1999 Lumina Idling problems & Etc. (12/21/2006 1:40:48 PM)

Hi everyone.  I'm new here, and I figured that this is the place where my questions may be answered.  I have been having some minor, but annoying problems with my car for quite a while now.  First, the car hesitates slightly, sometimes not so slightly, when accelerating from a stop.  Also, the engine will sometimes bog down and almost die when coming to a stop.  This happens primarily when driving in a city or town (stop & go).  Also, it sometimes idles at a high rpm, high enough that the car can go about 25 mph without stepping on the gas.  I suppose that this might be a bad sensor, such as a throttle position sensor, MAF or O2 sensor, but I figured that I would ask here and see if anyone else has had similar troubles.

Thanks!
