FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, PROBABLY > 10 TIMES IN PAST TWO MONTHS. AT LOW STEADY SPEED, SUCH AS DRIVING IN A PARKING LOT, WHEN I LET UP ON GAS PEDAL, THE CAR DOES NOT SLOW DOWN IMMEDIATELY. ONE EXPECTS THE IMMEDIATE, SLIGHT FEELING OF DECELERATION ON THE BODY, BUT IT DOESN'T COME RIGHT AWAY. USUALLY IT LASTS ABOUT ONE SECOND. IT HAS LASTED UP TO THREE SECONDS. RECENTLY THIS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING STEADILY AT 30MPH, I LET UP ON ACCELERATOR ENTERING A 20MPH ZONE, AND CAR DID NOT SLOW DOWN IMMEDIATELY. THIS WAS THE OCCASION IT TOOK 3 SECONDS. I HAVE BEEN PAYING ATTENTION TO THIS ISSUE RECENTLY BECAUSE IT HAPPENS SO MUCH. I HAVE NOT NOTICED THIS PROBLEM AT HIGH SPEED, SUCH AS EXPRESSWAY DRIVING. *TR
