| On acceleration the gas cuts out, lasting around 3 to 10 seconds. i cannot duplicate this condition, it just happens sporadically. it is very dangerous because the car behind me has no indication that i am in limbo and could easily rear-end me. this usually occurs when i am turning at a low speed, but has happened when driving straight. | |||

| I was driving at 60 mph on highway but suddenly the engine revved all the way to 7000 rpm and the car jerked violently. i put my foot off the accelerator but the engine still stays at 5000 rpm and doesn't go back down to normal. had to pull over to the shoulder with emergency light on. tried to get back on the highway but at 35 to 40 mph, the engine made loud revving noise and the rpm jumped to 7000 again. had to pull over again and call for a tow truck. *tr | |||
