Chad,

There's about a 50/50 chance you'll solve your hesitation problem with a new
AFM.  Have you checked your current one with a multi-meter?  From what I've
seen a used AFM will run $60 and up, a rebuilt from Ken or Ron around $140
and a new one $200.  Make sure your idle speed, timing and throttle position
switch are correctly adjusted first.  Then check the O2 sensor wire and the
AFM.

RPM's?  Anyway, does anyone have one for sale that is in reasonable

condition?  Please email me with your asking price.

thanks,
