    hi guys!

    i have a 96 manual civic and lately i've been experiencing some sort of problem when driving.

    driving at low speed, like at 2nd gear only and around 30 km/h the car suddenly feels like i'm shifting it at a lower gear or engine breaking and then goes back to it's normal feel.

    this has been happening with or without the AC.

    any theories?

    TIA

    electrical or fuel related problem.

    sa electrical, check the plugs and hi-ten wires.
    sa fuel related, check mo yung fuel lines, baka barado.

    Have you change the fuel filter lately? If it's a high mileage car, replace also the spark plugs and wires. An easy fix.
