Dan, Questions that come to mind? Does it run smoothly at an idle? How is the engine compression? Has this been a chronic problem that has slowly developed or did it come on all at once? How do the spark plugs look? Does it run better or worse when you discconect the 02 sensor? gary Date: Tue, 25 Mar 2003 12:34:28 -0800 From: Dan Romano <vwtelledanoromano@YAHOO.COM> Subject: No low end Power

Howdy,

I seem to always be posting things and get great responses with the exception of the list I posted with like six problems. So I figure I will just focus on what I would like to take care of first.

I have got no low end power out of first and second gear and then when climbing hills in the road. It seems to lug off the line and then when the rpms hit about 2000 to 3000 it kicks in and goes good. Then I have to shift into second and it happens again. Then third and no problem it goes great. When climbing hills I end up shifting into second just to go 25 mph I know the car is a vw but it had more power before the last fixes which were new oxygen sensor and wire rebuild and a new temp sensor. Any help to get the power back would be great.

Thanks again

Dan Romano
