Subject:      What's going on in my Engine...
Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed

All,
  Please, someone point me in the right direction...  This morning (about 20
degree's F) my Van started fine, warmed up fine and everything was
beautiful.  About a half hour into my commute it started...  I would press
the gas pedal and the tack (and engine) would drop to 200 or 300 rpm's and
then I would let off, it would idle just fine.  Press the gas again, same
thing.  All this while trying to get through a busy intersection.  I had to
coax it across the intersection and get it onto the Freeway.  On the Freeway
at a constant speed (63 mph) it was fine.  Press the gas and hesitation, no
bucking just hesitation.  I have an 85 with Digijet FI and the cap fix in
the AFM.  The Van has been running nice for quite a while up until a week or
so ago when this problem arose.  Thank you for any insight...
