    Chevy Cavalier 1998 acting up
    Every time I accelerate my car hesitates to reach speed then accelerates normal... Same with when I am on the freeway. When I'm driving on the freeway and I want to accelerate faster it hesitates to go faster then, finally will let me.

    What is wrong with it!:mad:

    . Replace platinum spark plugs (ACDelco only).
    . Replace fuel filter.

    Does it seem to be missing or does it seem like the transmission isn't going into gear? When was the last time you 1) tuned it up or 2) changed the transmission fluid?
