Poor Acceleration At Low Speed

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Buick Regal, 2002 Buick Century, 2001 Buick Regal, and 2001 Buick Century. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

If the stator is freewheeling at all times, the car tends to have poor acceleration from a standstill. At speeds above 30-35 MPH, the car may act normally. For poor acceleration, you should first determine that the exhaust system is not blocked, and the transaxle is in 1st gear when starting out.

If the engine freely accelerates to high RPM in Neutral, you can assume that the engine and the exhaust system are normal. Check for poor performance in Drive and Reverse to help determine if the stator is freewheeling at all times.
