I AM THE ONLY OWNER OF THIS VEHICLE, BOUGHT IT NEW. FOR THE LAST FOUR YEARS I HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. THE CAR JUMPS AND HESITATES UPON ACCELERATION. THE TACH JUMPS ALL OVER THE PLACE. SOMETIMES WHEN YOU PULL UP TO A STOP SIGN THE TACH GOES TO ZERO AND THE CAR JUST DIES. IT NORMALLY STARTS RIGHT BACK UP, BUT NOT ALL THE TIME. DID A COMPLETE TUNE UP ON IT INCLUDING REPLACING THE FUEL FILTER. DIDN'T SEEM TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE. MORE RECENTLY I JUST HAD THE DISTRIBUTOR REPLACED. RAN GREAT FOR A DAY THEN ACTED UP THE SAME WAY AGAIN. I AM READY TO PULL MY HAIR OUT.
IS THERE ANYONE THAT HAS A CLUE WHAT IS WRONG? I HAVE BEEN TOLD IT IS PROBABLY ELECTRICAL BUT UNTIL IT COMPLETELY BREAKS WHO KNOWS WHAT IT IS. LAST NIGHT I TRIED TO START IT AND FOR 10 MINUTES I COULD NOT GET IT TO RUN AT ALL. I THOUGHT OKAY FINALLY IT IS COMPLETELY BROKEN. AN HOUR LATER I WENT OUT AND IT STARTED UP FINE. HELP!!!!!
