The problem is mainly when u are givin it a bit of stick from second to third (auto 4speed) I think it holds gear for a sec then seems to lose momentum for a sec u can hear it spluttering away then its fine. Ive had the car in to ford to check coils etc but they say there fine and couldnt really pin point it its only just started doing if after changing the centre muffler. Any ideas?

If it is not the problem, then someone around the dyno may point you in the right direction.Scotty
