Exactly...When I put it in neuteral it's fine. I'll get right on that pressure guage. Thanks, If I do get a diagnostic test will it tell me exactly what's messing up? that way I don't go spending a bunch of unecessary money.

I'm not sure, but from what I understand, it will only record events if they happen 3 times within one driving cycle. (From the time you start to the time you turn it off is one driving cycle) But I could be wrong. I'm not a "real" mechanic. I just tinker on my cars. If your check engine light is not on, then it most likely has not recorded anything, so pulling the codes won't net you anything. If you CAN, it would be best to take it to a shop, and have them hook it up then take it out for a drive so they can see what the computer is saying WHEN the event happens. But thats in a "perfect world". Good luck...If nothing else, try 91Notch on here. He has a shop over in Clearwater area called Genium Performance. He may be able to help you out.

Well the only problem with that is I live in Ft. Walton beach in the panhandle so I can't get to any shops around there....I've been wanting to take it to the shop but i'm on a tight budget. I'll go ahead and find a way to get the diagnostic test done and go from there, hopefully it'll tell me something.
