Okay, so this is what is going on....
My check engine light is on.... had a mistubishi dealer run codes came back as a most likely solenoid is going bad.... haven't fixed it yet because he said it would cost like $800 to fix, and well I don't have that kind of money... this happened back in January. I just rolled over 60k on a 97 eagle talon esi, i changed my spark plugs last week and put in a K&N air filter... ran fine over the weekend, but today driving home from work my car started to chug when i went below 40mph. It idles uneveningly as well. When i am in park it also chugs. When i go above 40 mph the chuggin goes away, but it has no pick up... it takes forever to get to 70mph. Can someone please help me... so when i go to a mechanic i dont' get screwed over!
thanks!
