Re: Sluggish motor at 2200 RPM

Change the fuel filter if it hasn't been changed yet. If you take a hose and put it next to the fuel injectors while the car is running, you can hear to see if each one is working or not. Your fuel pump might not be good. It's located in the right rear wheel well behind a plastic panel that is held by 4 or 5 screws. Good luck.

Go buy some TV tuner cleaner from Radio Shack and clean your airflow meter with it. It probably has a "dead" spot in the meter and is making it go way lean. I had this same problem with mine, and cleaning the AFM cleared it all up.
