i have to push my gas pedal kind of hard to get any acceleration on it (03 Cl-P auto) and when i am going fast and i let go of the gas it just kind of sticks at that speed for a while, or when i am not putting much pressure on the gas, i can't always tell if i actually am putting pressure or if i have no pressure because it is so stiff and my pedal has that small gap where the gas pedal can go up and down, like if you could do put it up and down with your hands. so this is kind of a nuissance, i don't know if anyone else has that problem, took it to the acura dealer servicec and they said it was fine. could there be anything wrong with the fuel injectors, ,beccause i think i recall someone said something about getting a cleaning done and it should fix the problem. What do you recommend for a Eleectronic Fuel injector cleaner, at the acura dealer or a regular service shop like Pep Boys, beecacuse i know that it is recommended that any transmission stuff like fluid changes and other tranny related stuff be done at the dealer because they are highly sensitive. but what about the EFI service??

 

Andy, Don't worry about the Fuel Injectors, the car is not old enough to have that kind of buildup on them. Keep usuing the 91-93 Octane "premium" and you will be fine.
So your saying the car feesl different than when you first bought it ?

 

yeah the car is feeling different. and the car also feels more jerky because of the shifts in gears. they were smoother before now its getting more apparent. but the 91 octane gas and the STP fuel system cleaner might have boosted my gas mileage a bit more

 

Check your tranny fluid, and report back the color. If your Gas mileage is improving the STP is doing what it should. I just picked up a bottle yesterday, going in as soon as fuel is low.

 

slow throttle response , check for weak throttle return spring also for corrosion/dirt on the throttle cable
