When I'm cruising along in the 45-55 mph range and jam the gas pedal to pass, all I get is a weak, "thready" response. I have to back off the pedal and then gradually add power, letting the RL go through it's normal upshifting routine. This is very annoying and potentially dangerous, as it causes significant hesitation when attemping a passing manuver.
Even my poor old Windstar minivan knew that when you suddenly jam the accelerator that you want max power and you want it right now!
Is this typical of the RL, or is something wrong with mine (and maybe related to my very poor gas milage)? Like maybe a bad spark plug wire, etc.?
