Alpha- how would a boost leak keep the car fine for 5 minutes then start donig that again, doesnt make sense. And yes my a/c was working fine, I wouldn't drive my son around in the car without AC it is florida not new york or alaska. You are showing everyone why I will not take the car back to Brotherz racing, enough said Brotherz ftl!
Thanks Tom/lbjamin I will check that out, makes sense because like I said my cars a/c stopped working after the safc got stolen out of it.
boosteddsm- I will consider taking it there if I can't fix it myself, I really want to try and do this without spending alot more money considering I just got raped by Brotherz for breaking more shit then they fixed.

From experience the jerking that you felt has to be either a loose MAF connection or a bad MAF all together.
The AC thing... my car only blows really cold for a few months after a full AC service and I have no leaks or anything. Its just the way the car has always been. Get it serviced and check for any leaks.

Ok here it is, after I got my car from Brotherz I am having some problems with my car (98 gst 60k miles, head was replaced) and honestly I rather not take my car back there seeing how it was there for 6 months for a minor job before.
Anyways, one of the problems started yesterday where I was just driving in low RPM in second gear and the car started sputtering and jerking violently almost like if there was someone that didn't know how to drive a manual transmission car. When I stopped and turned the car off I checked vaccum lines and didn't see anything loose or any couplers that have come off any pipes. I started the car back up and it did good for about 5 minutes but again the same problem started happening to where I couldn't even get it home a minute away because no matter how much gas you get it, it didn't seem like it was being injected to the motor. Sorry about the lingo, cars really are not my thing.
Problem 2:
This was happening right when I got my car back from Brotherz, and let me say this may have happend from when someone broke into the car and yanked out the S-AFC, but im not sure. The A/C blows somewhat cold, but not nearly as cold as it should. It is almost like it goes in cycles of being close to cold and not cold at all, no matter what position the air lever is on (recirc or pulled from outside). I checked the little arm underneath the dash that moves when you pick hot or cold and that is working fine.
Thanks in advance guys, I really need my car fixed of these 2 problems so I can sell it. My son is already hitting the passenger seat from his car seat- so I'm desperate to get this fixed and sell it. Thanks again.

kscragg, It is quite clear from your posts that both problems you are having were caused from your car being broken into. This has nothing to do with any shops incompetency.

The problem was a shit poor loose connection with the battery terminal- issue number 1 fixed. Biggest incompetency was the customer service, Miguel who worked on my car did a good job fixing the car IMO and working with me. Bam also does his job over there just sucks with who they have work around. Thanks for all the comments about the car I appreciate it.
