Default Hesitation

Anyone else get hesitation when you first start up. I have let it sit for 2-3 minutes to warm up and when I first give it gas its like the fuel pump / injectors don't keep up with the needs. I feel it hesitate. I remember old volkswagons bucking more but...about the same type of deal lol

I doubt that it's water in the fuel. How about a more detailed description of the problem.

Does it only do it starting out? Does it do it at higher speeds.

You probably get more help from people here with more details.

they do have minor throttle response issues. but i'd rule out bad gas first. doubt you have water in the tank though. i do best with shell gas.
