So last nite I was on my way home and my car developed a stutter. Car cranks up and cuts off just fine but when I put it in drive or reverse it starts to stutter. While driving to work today I feel like I got motion sickness, from the constant jerking sensation. When I say jerking it isnt like what you see when someone can not drive stick but it reminded me of the sensation when riding a horse.

Okay ended up checking the plug wires and it appears one was lose. Fixxed that and it runs great. Now on to the next issue.
