Default Something I have never experience Before!!!

Well, it happened when i was getting onto an on-ramp onto 295. I floored it in 3rd and i felt this strong vibration and hesitation coming from my engine, and it continued as long as i held the pedal full open. When I do not go full open it does not happen. I have a '99 Quattro. It almost feels like the feeling that would happen when you are in a front-wheel drive car and it is searching for traction.

Default Try re-gapping (careful they are delicate) the Denso's down to .030" gap. I think you are getting

misfires.
