Sudden hesitation

Hi, can anyone help...My Z was running like a champ...fast and strong. Yesterday morning it started hesitating and has lost power. I have changed the plugs, wires, rotor, cap, fuel filter and the coil...still running the same. Any suggestions?

Dave

check your Throttle Posistion Sensor connection.. and your AFM connection as well.. look for any vacuume leaks as well... also your fuel pressure regulator can cause that problem too..

Thanks...the AFM hoses look good and couldn't find any vacuume leaks. I stopped by Dando's today...in Fremont and made an appointment...for Monday. I hear it's a great Z shop. What do you think?

Maybe you got water in your gas it happened to me once, on my old car, when I got gas from a rural gas station. Maybe try some additives. Good luck!!
