bog down while accelerating

**chicagosleeper** · 11-09-2013

Hey guys! Once again a weird intermittent problem with my gtp...it looses power when driving randomly the engine will begin to bog down making the gas pedal harder to press and the engine will get louder than normal. I've changed quite alot in the last couple months but I can't seem to figure this out. I did FPR,LIM,UIM SUPERGASKET,WATER PUMP,FUEL FILTER,OIL CHANGE as of yesterday. Thought the oil change would help it definitely runs smoother.but I'm still having the.issue randomly.
oh and another thing when the car starts to bog I usually just let off the pedal fpr a few seconds then it gets better after that
Like i said intermittent

I did read something about there being a primary fuel filter in the pump that needs to get changed? Is this true? If so I bet there's a write up for it!

Try plugs and wires

**chicagosleeper** · 11-09-2013

Plugs was my next step but I'm still leaning on that whole filter.in the pump? Anyone heard anything like that before?

**Scottydoggs** · 11-09-2013

theres a sock on the end of the f/p, not a filter really. there is a inline filter tho.

does the check engine light ever flash?

id start with a tune up, then maybe if it still acting up the cat could be clogged or broken up inside blocking the exhaust.

I have no cat I have zzp dp with o2 bung. And I changed the.inline filter on the bottom of the car couple months back

**chicagosleeper** · 11-09-2013

Since my lim and uim yadda yadda no cels and no it doesn't flash or that'd b a sure heads up of bad plugs! Ty tho

**Scottydoggs** · 11-09-2013

do the plugs and wires then, you'd be surprised what old plugs and wires can do. make it feel fine around town, get on it and it stumbles/bucks and has no power, let off and it goes again.

**chicagosleeper** · 11-09-2013

That's exactly what its doing! After all the work she's been running beautifully this is the only bad thing about her right now! Ill give it a shot today and we will see what happens after!

**Scottydoggs** · 11-09-2013

she goes under the knife again, well a little bit anyways lolmake sure you have a spark plug socket, one with a foam insert, this helps the plugs from breaking.
