Very frustrating reoccurring problem.
I don't pretend to know much about how to fix cars, so last time I had this issue I brought it to a local repuatable shop and it cost me 3,000 to fix a problem that has come back a year later.
- While cruising at low RPM the car will buck anywhere from ever so lightly to pretty rough.
- Sometimes under heavy acceleration it'll stick at a certain rpm strain to get past it until I take my foot off the gas and smash the pedal again.
- Rough idles, doesn't die though.
Car is a 98 GT 5sp manual, only 58k miles on it. I treat the car like my baby but if I take it back to a shop and they just suggest I replace the heads again I'm going to opt to just trade it on on a lease for a new car (which would make me sad, I love my 98! )
Any ideas?
(smells like oil sometimes too)
