Okay.. here are some questions..
what causes this feeling of 'lurching' or jumping forward? It almost always happens in low gear (i get really crappy low gear preformance at like 10 -
25 mph) and now started happening in higher gears while keeping steady on the accelerator.next - i checked my Man. Trans. Lub. level a few mos ago, was at right height ondipstick but appeared 'bubbly', checked it today it was at completely low line (very bottom line).. what caused it to run out so much?
- i dont know if this is related, but the spark plugs appeared to be running hot (plugs were white), and one of the metal connector harness things inside the rubber boot was rusted all over, but the other wires were fine.. what do i need to do about this?
finally - when im driving, there is a very coins in a can like sound, can be affected by the accelerator, but not completely dependent on it.. it is becomming more common of a condition.. when the car is running (idling) and i listen at the back near the exhaust, it sounds like (best i can describe it) a boat running - no smooth operation sounds, but kind of a low soft 'boam boam boam' continuously
Sry for the large amount of questions, but they all apear to have come up at the same time - i noticed the noises and checked it over: air filter fine, distr fine and not moveable, plugs were a bit white, wires fine (except rusted one), fuel filter changed, belts are fine, fluids are fine when i add to them, battery and alt are all fine, distr isnt cracked or anything...
any help appreciated JB
