2nd gear stutter Can't Post

Hello all.... I wonder if you can help me out. We have a 2002 PT and she is stuttering in 2nd gear. We don't notice it in any other gears. I have feed the old girl some Techron, but that didn't help anything.... Any idea? The fuel filter maybe? Or do you think I should take it in for service?

Have you had the transmission fluid and filter changed? That should be it, but to be safe I think a quick trip to the mechanic would probably be better. If they cannot find anything, take them with you and show them.


Good Luck

I think he's talking about Techron mixed with gas...

At least, I hope so! Wink

Yeah, i put the put Techron in the tranny, right.... I wouldn't even know how to do that. I'm not a mechanic but I'm not that stupid. I do change my own oil. (What kinda dork I am for saying that). ANYWAY... I was hoping it was the fuel injectors. Based on this advice, I think I'll take to a tranny shop for a flush and a once over.

Thanks for the replys... and Leo for the sound advice.
