It could be like mine was, the cadilatic (not sure on the spelling) converter was plugged. Once fully plugged my car had no pick up what so ever but on the way there. It would run rough at times, go slow, pick up speed, then all of a sudden run perfect then crappy again. You could also sometimes smell a rotten egg smell. All they did was cut it off at Midas for 70 bucks and it ran fine.
