Help- Surges in power I need help and im to cheap to take my car to a shop...
Problems:
1 when starting the car will turn over but not start up right away- used to start up right away always
2 while driving in almost any gear the car will surge in the ammount of power im getting
i used one of the hand scanners to check the SES light and there was P0300 (random/multiple misfires) and P0100 (MAF or VAF circuit malfunction) the p0100 code may have been from when i was cleaning the air filter and forgot to hook up all the wires before starting the car, or possibly from to much oil on the filter...
i think it could be the fuel pressure regulator or something to do with the ignition system so any helpful info would rock
