[DMCForum] Re: Engine status

You are exactly correct sir. I just cleaned all that up yesterday. It 
seems that every little thing I clean helps a little, which makes the 
root problem more and more apparent.

Now, any coil I install the symptoms are exactly the same instead of 
being different. Also, the root problem is much less. I can floor it 
and the car accelerates, and fairly well. However, there is -still- 
the sound of a slight flutter and it is eating into my horsepower, 
especially with the A/C on. If I let off of the pedal just a bit, the 
car "snaps" into full power, smooths out and accelerates more 
smoothly.

I'm very, very close.
