First thing I would do is get the computer (OB2) scanned. This will make it easier to help in the diagnosis. Most auto part stores will do this for free. When you get the codes, write them down and let me know what they are. There are many problems that could create this symptom and without speculating for hours let's try this out first and I'll be happy to help you out in finding the problem.



Thanks look forward to your reply

Well having them determine the problem shouldn't be too expensive. Let me know what they say and I can give you what the labor times are for the repair.

That sounds about right for a tune up. Hopefully this will take care of the problem. If you need anything else let me know..
