When I start up and put in drive, or from a stop, it takes a few seconds to get up to speed with putting good bit of pressure on the accelerator, but after I get going it runs fine. Any suggestions?

Go to an Advance Auto Parts Store or any for that matter, and ask for a code retrieve. The get back to me and we'll get a plan together. It is okay to drive but lets get with the program.

It's a crap shoot without codes to start a flow of diagnosis. Until then we can blame George Bush.

I scanned it for codes and it said George Bush. Can you believe there are some people who blame him for all of their problems? Unitl the morrow.
