Re: 95 Camry Acceleration
Jen,
Many times, with engines and engine controls being so advanced today, compared to the engines of my youth, we forget the basics. They are still internal combustion engines. Think spark, think fuel and think timing and check those things first. That 25-40 MPH speed under hard acceleration must have been a point where the engine vibration started moving that plug/porcelyn around a bit causing a slight miss.
Anyway, glad to hear you have finally fixed the problem.
Just a thought on the hood struts. They are fairly inexpensive to replace. They probably run about $25 each aftermarket. Many techs will use a pair of vise grips on one side at the top of the small diameter rod (the one that goes inside the other piece when you close the hood) to keep the hood help upright when the struts fail. Most people have a set of vice grips in their tool box. It's probably safer until the strut rods can be replaced.
