acceleration problem!
 
so im still tryin to figure out what the problem is with my 00 glx. when i shift gears sometimes it wont accelerate even if im pressing down on the pedal all the way. do guys think it could be my throttle body getting stuck or something? sometimes when i do to slow down to make a trun or something the car cuts of on me. appreciate the help! thanx!

RE: acceleration problem!
 
That's what I would check first. Just remove your air intake from the throttle body and if it is cable operated just check the movement and see if it's nice and smooth. If it's a drive by wire you'll have to have a friend pump the accelerator. If it's o.k. It could be the throttle body control module in which case you have to replace the throttle body. Any other ideas anyone?
