It can mean a lot of things, Mass air sensor is dirty, bad plugs, bad injectors, bad computer, any of those could be the problem
If you have a Civic with the ECO switch turn it off before passing. If not, take it to the dealership you have a problem.
check the jetting.
if it bogs out and shuts off you might have to clean the carb. you can do this with virtually no problem. most gas stations have carb cleaner for under five bucks. it is probaly either that or bad fuel line. id take it down to your local dealer to make sure its not a serious problem.
take off the bumper
Yes it can! Gary Whiteman former mustang pilot
It means it takes more gas to get the engine going
could be a vacuum leak and clean your throttle body out.
You may have to take all of the pulleys off and then take the thermostat off and then take the timing cover off.
It could be not getting enough air, if the filter is pushed too far down on the pipe, it would cause it to do that.
the engine timing could be off. Or, the fuel mix is wring. Or, the choke is sticking and the carburetor jets are out of adjustment.
Will parts off 1985 mustang interchange with 1989 gt mustang?
If it is a manual transmission, then push the accelerator pedal down more when you release the clutch. If it is an automatic transmission, then you probably need to get the transmission serviced. If you think the transmission isn't the problem, then get your engine serviced. To tell which is the problem, put the car in neutral and let it idle. If it is idling on low RPMs (less than 600 for gasoline, 800 for diesel [varies with car engines and age]) then it is the engine. If it bogs down when you take off from a dead stop, then it would probably be the transmission. When a car bogs down, it puts quite a bit of unnecessary wear and tear on the engine, leading to more expensive payments. I would take your car into a mechanic shop and have them look at it. Replace air and fuel filters.
