this sounds like my problem. Im at the college now and they are looking at it for me. they said that my transmission fluid was super low. so hopefully thats the only problem. ill update later after they refill it and test drive

So when i go back home, I'll have my mechanic see what code is triggering the "check engine light"...also i will change my oil i'm about 400 miles over (i use mobile 1)...from there I will check the distributor cap. A similar problem happened around this time last year and it ended up being a melted spark plug wire...my mechanic said it was triggered by using bosch platinum 4's with cheap wires....he suggested that i stay NGK and i have been ever since, i just recently had the tranny fluid changed...soon I'll be flushing out the radiator. Hopefully i can resolve this issue...i need to get at least another 30,000 miles out of this engine....by then i'll be ready for the JDM H22a 5spd MT swap....but until then its just me and the F23 ULEV :(

No answers on this? I got hesitation when the car hot... almost like no power when pulling out at low rpms when the car is hot... but once the rpms get up there its all good... (I know our cars dont have much low-end power, but it reallly lacks the low end when its good and hot... pissin me off...)
