...also fuel filter?

Fuel pressure, MAF Mass AirFlow, TPS Throttle Pos sensor and Heated O2 sensors may be individually tested and verified up to a point. First check charge voltage and correct if necessary [bad alt = voltage spikes can be found out if alt cables are disconnected for tsting].

Bad Knock Sensor retards ignition, my ECU did not report that. Causes universal pwr loss [no hesitation].

MAF and TPS can also be cleaned instead/before replacement. Some links on page http://www.cardomain.com/ride/748507/9 ...also see 'Favorite Links'; theres 'some' reading...

My Spanish is worse than your english ...how's your Finnish?

thanks for the reply, i think ther is no fuel filter in this model, but i cleaned the filter in the gas pump inside the tank. i'll check the TPS and MAF sensors, thanks...

...but youre right! No filter mentioned in the FSM. Still theres the vacuum controlled regulator which may become faulty.

Pressure, see FSM page EC-55:

At idling:
With vacuum hose connected
Approximately 235 kPa (2.4 kg/cm2, 34 psi)
With vacuum hose disconnected
Approximately 294 kPa (3.0 kg/cm2, 43 psi)
