2000 Accord - Car "chugs/hesitates"
Has only happened in 4th, automatic tranny, only when lightly pressing the gas. 102k miles. SRS light is on. Check engine isn't. Haven't replaced the belts. Spark plugs are recent.
50-60 mph, rpm is about 1900-2100.
The car will chug 2-3 times, and I've noticed it more if I'm starting to go up a hill. But it's hard to reproduce, and sometimes it won't happen at all. Had the tranny replaced 9k miles ago, and it almost feels like that when it died (but it was slipping bad, which hasn't happened currently).
Maybe the fuel injectors are dirty?
Thanks for any suggestions.

what kind of plugs did you install????????
As for cleaning the injectors , it would not hurt at all... it is beneficial. wether that is the problem i am not 100% sure ..
you should fix the srs lite issue .. belts are under lifetime warranty ,,

is this when you are comming up to speed and you let your foot off the gas ans the TQ converter locks up? If so, add a can of lubne guard to the trans (red cap) and see if that helps you out.

Found the problem.
The plugs/wires were toast. I tried to unplug 3 of the plugs, and they broke off. The plugs also looked like hell.
4 new spark plugs, new wires, runs fine. Never really had that happen before.
