Hello Kim,
Lurching and "impedeing" is not the most comprehensive
description I've ever heard.
That could describe everything including
wheels falling off... flat tires...
LOCKED UP CV-Joint... dried out oil-less manual transmissions .. to pistons sticking outside the engine block.
Perhaps you failed to pay a pile of
parking tickets...
and have a
wheel-lock attached? ((I'm just saying))
My best "ADVISE" would be to guide YOUR "lurching and impedeing" down to your first local muffler shop that offers FREE READING...
(FREE is a relative term) ... Have them READ your
DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES... For a good starting place.
It would be WISE to know the prices of some of your "PARTS"
before you go...
Or you could relate more relevant details... year, engine displacement, tranny type... Maintenance history and
POST a
better question... provoking a
better answer.
Hope I'm helping!
