Hi friends, I am looking for some answers to bring to my mechanic. When I am driving my 1984 1.9L, and after it warms up (8 minutes) the Van kicks back when cruising, or when trying to pass another vehicle. It feels like I lose power and then it comes back real quick, causing the van to jolt. My mechanic has checked my plugs and all other basic tune-up areas. He says it could be electric. Anyone else ever have this problem and what was needing some care? My Van is like so close to being a real nice driver. I have spent 700 plus on it in the past 6 months in hopes of getting a reliable vehicle. I can feel the satisfaction, my car hasn't felt better, but it just needs this thing fixed!! Thanks for any help! Dan |
