hesitation update....

well to start, thanks for the help....but my parents lost their patients and wouldn't let me play anymore and decided to bring it to the dealer...its ok, they paid for it....

but they ended up replaceing my 02 sensor, my cap and rotor (really wish they told me so i could get a MSD or accell to finish off my inigition)....evidentally that these parts were waterlogged...probably from when i had water up to my doors on campus once. long story buy no damage at all. well they said when i started it and pulled out of the water water must have gotten inside or somethen. and that it usualy takes 6 months to a year to have an affect on the car. needless to say i have been driving it like this for a good three months....soooo, thats what it was for future reference....but we pretty much hit the nail on the head with our diagnosis....

MY HOOKER IS GOING ON THURSDAY.....CAN'T WAIT
