Re: 3.8L engine will not accelerate
did you mean that it doesnt move at all, or it rolls forward at idle speed only?

Re: 3.8L engine will not accelerate
so what exactly happens when you press the gas? what does it sound like? does it go forward in drive? backwards in reverse?

Re: Re: 3.8L engine will not accelerate
when the gas pedal is depressed the engine sounds like it is sucking air, but isnt getting gas...it will move in either direction if put in gear....
