Shudder during acceleration

[Brian O'Neill]

plugs ???? bad wires ???? if you have allen wrenches
and a spark plug socket and are not afraid to get
alittle dirty, change the plugs before you take the
car to the shop, get some bosch supers, not the
platnum ones !! thats probably whats wrong. if there
is any wooshing noise addes with your pboblem, look
for boost hoses.
