This one just started a few days ago...
I was driving up a slight incline in 2nd gear when the car felt like it skipped a beat. It lost power for a fraction of a second and felt like it lurched forward. It's now done this at least a half-dozen time over the last few days, with varying degrees of intensity and in different gears, but always on some sort of incline.
Here's what I do know. In the last 4 months I've done the air filter, fuel filter, PCV valve, spark plugs, wires, cap, and rotor. I've done some googling/Haynes reading and signs suggest it might be the fuel pump. Lurching also suggested it might be a tranny issue, but it's not doing it in any particular gear or with any regularity. So, fuel pump?
This is just what I need what with no money, no proper place to do car repairs, and a job offer 1200 km away just around the corner...
Any help or advice is greatly appreciated, thanks!
