My 1993 dodge caravan has a problem when I drive it.
the engine is running well, but, when I start driving it hesitates to go so I have to hit the gas hard then it go slowly like it is struggling like an old lady. It does not want to shift gears right away.
I checked oil transmission is full, I just changed the oil filter but it still does the same thing over again.
Especially go up hill the car is very very struggling to survive.
Any advise because a transmission job is very expensive.
Thank you very much.

Lack of acceleration, chugging, hesitating, jerking, bogging, misfiring etc. Could be caused by one of the following below

Oxygen sensor.
Catalytic converter.
Fuel injectors dirty/sticking.
Mass airflow sensor/Airflow meter.
Throttle position sensor.
Crankshaft position sensor
Knock sensor
Manifold absolute pressure sensor.
EGR Valve
Fuel pressure regulator leaking or defective fuel pump.
False air leakage.
Fuel contamination.
Foul/defective spark plugs.
Open spark plug wires.
Ignition coil/Coil packs defective.
Incorrect ignition timing.
Cap and rotor.

Note:If it doesn't apply disregard it
