Is the check engine light coming on at all.
It sounds like a MAF sensor problem but this engine doesn't use one. Saturntech9 should be along eventually to offer his opinion. He's the man when it comes to Saturns.

Do you have a delay bang into reverse?Is the check engine light on?SO is the rpms going up and the car not moving?If the check engine light is on what are the exact code numbers not code descriptions?
