2004 Mazda 6 2.3L has recently began to sputter on acceleration..

Asked by Hawk74 Sep 27, 2015 at 10:54 PM about the 2004 Mazda MAZDA6 4 Dr i Hatchback

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My car recently began to
sputter/hesitate when trying to
accelerate.  Does not happen all the
time.  Typically, when trying to
accelerate on an incline.  At this time
the car is not throwing any codes.  
Does not really feeling like a
transmission slip, which is what I
was initially thinking.  The car has
150K on it and has been well
maintained.  Any thoughts or
suggestions would be greatly
appreciated.
