Hi, I have a 2001 with 214,000 miles. Recently it started stuttering at about 2500RPM and will not go past that. I have check coils, plugs. Any suggestions

 

Thanks in advance

I know for the early models. If you are having maf issues it will behave like that. Check to make sure it plugged in, has a solid, corrosion free connection,and it's clean on it's elements.

OBD2 reader, it is your friend.

 

Seriously, that is 1/2 the reason for the system and the place to start, it can tell you a lot!

Some places like Pep Boys, AutoZone, etc (check to make sure) will loan a reader/check the codes for you for free, and a cheap reader (all you need) is about $40+ and worth the $.

 

Sounds like you are in limp mode (ECU default setting for 'we have a problem'. Go to the Garage section and download a free copy of the FSM from the pinned thread, it will be your new bible.

Hate to budge in here after my bad recommendation, lol

 

But I have an obd reader that is Bluetooth compatible, and pairs to my phone, and I have an app that can interpret what the obd reader sees. For $15 it's awesone

 

App is called torque
