Hesitation at ~3k (new owner)
Hello all, I bought my 951 about three weeks ago ('87, 66k miles, completely stock, Guards Red) and have also become a Rennlist member, lurking and learning lots.
The car runs well and I'm looking forward to modifying it but before I play with it I want get it completely sorted, freshen everything up and then go from there.
Here's my question:
At about 3k rpm, just as the boost starts to roll in, the car hesitates and/or misses and then pulls hard(!) from there. Is this normal? Weak wastegate spring? Ignition? (I have cap/rotor/plugs/wires on the way) Bad Karma maybe?
Thanks in advance for any advise and thanks too for the great forum!
