well, how do i go about testing to see if the TCC is "burned out or "sticking"? im talking about NO low end power, when i punch the gas its almost as if the car is struggling to stay running, very very horrible acceleration till about 20~25 mph, ive cleaned out the build up in the upper manifold and throttle body, opend the intake and threw on a dynomax mufler, so i dont understand why there is the lack of power from 0 till 25 or so. im still working on my sensor problem, but i dout a (MAF) would cause this kind of problem, ~~~motors got 165k and runs great other than this problem, and im not looking for a high powerd machine here, but it would be nice to chirp the tires at a stop light ONCE in a while!!!

 

it wouldn't be the tcc unless the motor revs a lot before the car goes. check your timing...it could be retarded.

 

yeah, that makes sense, cuz its like its catching up with it self..... almost like, it cant handle WOT at once..

 

Check the timing.

Check the chain for stretch, too!
