When I start my car, before I put it in gear, it is really jumpy for 5-15 seconds and sometimes dies and I have to restart it. If I try to drive it while it’s jumping, it jumps worse or dies or just won’t go.
Next…when I put it in reverse, it backs up just fine like Terry in his wheel chair running from fireworks (google “put it in reverse Terry” if you haven’t seen it. Lol) but any time I put it in drive, it takes a few seconds before you feel it bump into drive.
Then, at least once a week it runs hot and I have to add coolant to an almost completely empty reservoir. We bought a pressure tester and tested it and it was slowly losing pressure but we couldn’t find a leak. The next morning when I started it, a light grey (not white) heavy smoke started pouring out of the exhaust. And it smelled pretty bad. I parked it and took my husbands truck to work. When he got home, he started it and there was no smoke and no smell. Help please. Can I drive it? What’s wrong with this dang car?
