:evil: ok all i have a 95 EF XR8, the issue is apart from it being a bucket of crap is that it will drive perfect for a hour or so, then all of a sudden it will start to jerk back and fowards, it idles perfect, but just doesnt want to be normal, i need it going so i can it in on something that isnt a ford

maybe if you learnt to use a spanner you could fix it without making it worse.

When was the last time you took it to a decent mechanic. He would plug it in and would tell you what needs fixed, to me it sounds like a faulty sensor. As for trading it up im curious to know what too? I mean do really think if you owned a holden that was flogged for 14 years of it life and not givin good going over, it would be any better?
