Have a problem that feels like an air leak. Previous intake tube was starting to rot... slight cracks in according section led to air leaks that caused similar issue. Replaced tube, everything ran fine for few months. Now the similar problem has developed and I'm wondering if it isn't something new causing similar issue. Don't hear any air leak and tube is secure. I'm thinking fuel pump? I have to turn key couple times to get good pressure I suppose... worsening problem but wonder if it could be affecting JUST that initial take off when torque is applied to the ground... in neutral it seems better. Take off from a stop and stumble, pop, pop, pop, leave off gas a little and slowly give it pedal and it does ok... switching manual gears and all ok when reving back up.... only when first taking off from a stop. faster I hit the acceleration pedal, the more the problem! ideas?
