Hi all just want to know if anybody here knows what would cause a car to run a little rough?
it has good excelleration but it kinda feels tight when it accelerates and there is a slight burnt (or burning) odor
There is this weird vibration coming from my pedal area?
If any one can help I sure woild appreciate it!

Thanks everyone even the sarcastics!

does it smell like the clutch or brakes?

It doesnt feel like the clutch because the car shifts just fine. Whenever you are driving it, it accelerates fine, but the acceleration seems a little rough. Any ideas?

check your plugs wired and timing.

possibly dirty or bad fuel injectors, wires, plugs, fuel filter, dirty throttle body, dirty air filter...etc,etc....

Yeah i agree with the previous post... start checking that stuff. First thing i would try is running Fuel injector cleaner, then cap/rotor/plugs, air then fuel filters.

well I think its in the clutch cause there is a vibration in the pedals!
See you you dont know what your talking about!

Check the clutch free play. If it is the clutch you definitely want to check this out as soon as possible else you will wear the clutch out prematurely. Adjusting is easy while replacing clutch is expensive.
