PT is hard to start, sometimes. When it does start, it surges while in motion, revs drop car bucks, then continues, then repeats.The normal motion is short, 1-2 sec between surges. My buddy, not me, ran it with VERY low oil a few days ago. He changed the oil & filter, but I suspect he has stretched the timing belt and it has jumped a tooth. DTC's are P0325 & P0340.
Is there any way to confirm?
