Hi Again to everyone!

Just got my car back today! :)

had the head gasket done and a full service!

but i got to go back as i forgot to ask him something, which i remembered on the way bak!

Guyz does anyone know why do i sometimes get this thing when the heating i think comes on and it feels like my carz going to shut down.

It happens only sometimes when im standing near the traffic light or if ive stopped.

well the car never shuts or stops but still it feels like it will when that heating comes on. Infact i dont even know if its the heating but do u guyz think itz a big problem?

any advise would be grateful before asking the mechanic.

Im so glad that i found this site, at least i know 50% if the mechanic is chatting s**t or not!

thanks

Alright m8. if you have an induction kit on your car and if hasnt been serviced in a while it can cause the revs to dip right down to about 500rpm before jumping back up to around 800rpm, it can happen repeatedly about once every second. If not have you spark plugs and leads check and use superunleaded once in a while your car will run much better!
