Hi there, I hope someone can help me with a problem. I dont know if this has anything to do with my problem but it happened right after I changed my oil. I change my oil in my 2003 mazda mpv van and I began to hesitate while im driving. Its like the engine hesitates 2 or 3 times. Sometimes even on acceleration it hesitates. Imagine it like your engine is bumping forward 2 or 3 times then is fine. I cant describe it. I put synthetic oil in it and changed the filter, but doubt that has anyting to do with it. Its almost like when you car is idling funny but when driving. It only does its intermittenly. Any help would be appreciated.

Try some fuel injector/fuel system cleaner. It's available at any auto supply store. Wal-Mart also carries it. You may have some moisture in your fuel.

Has the engine light come on at all? This souonds like it may be either a problem with the PCV hose (on the back of the intake. You won't be able to see it) or possible a faulty ignition coil.
