Quick Problem
When I hit 4 grand with any gear the car loses power for no longer than a second, before continuing on perfectly. The RPMs clime steadily. Clutch problem? Or do I just imagine this? This is on a stock car, no turbo.

I have this hesitation whenever I accelerate right around 3500-4000 RPM
The dreaded 3800 RPM hesitation is cause 90% of the time by poor ground connections between the engine, the battery, and the car. Clean or replace all the under hood ground connections. On 86 model year cars , replacing/regrounding the pressure sensor's ground wire has helped (do not re-ground a 87 or later model year). If there is still a problem after that, look at cleaning the fuel injectors and (on a N/A) that your 5th/6th ports are operating correctly.

Thats nothing new. People yell at me all the time, and mostly it's my fault. I'd rather be yelled at then spend 3 hours searching around because I have a 33.3k internet connection.
