A surge of power??
Hey guys,
Ive been trying to figure a problem ive noticed for a while now..
Here it is.. Im going on down the highway.. 4th gear, (the mazda 5spd) around.. i think 120km\hr, (speedo hasnt worked in the 7yrs ive owend it) at around 2500-2750rpm. And.. its goes ok, if i wanna pass its there.. but sometimes ill noticed a surge of power. Ya i know the stock 302 only does 185, and with chip, exhasut, headers.. im just up over 200, maybe but it will puch me back in the seat. I really feel a surge. Any ideas, or comments?
Like i said, 302, 5spd.. 4.56 gear ratio f/r , 35's. Im going to change my plugs, wires, cap, rotor, coil later on today. but other then that.. im stumped.
Thanks

Hey guys.
Heh.. no, i took the NOS off last week.. was finiding it to hard on the clutch I didnt think to check codes, never even thought of that. But i did do hwat i said i was gonna, plugs all looked ok, brown, nothing out of the normal. new wires, coil, cap/rotor. The old cap/rotor looked alil worse for wear. Im leaning towards that, but not to sure. I still feel it a bit, so ill grab the codes on my next days off.
Thanks for the suggestions.
