I try to pass a slower car and instead of my car dropping down in2 a lower gear and launching itself and start pulling, it stalls as if it's shutting down and then it starts pulling but then if I punch it a little more it does it everytime I punch the gas... But it never stalls when I just push the gas peddle down at a even push instead of punching it to the floor... What could be the problem.. I hope not transmission problems already I just bought it a month ago frm a friend and i still have put the peddle to the floor yet. Can someone help me?

i have the same problems once in a while. my problem is mine eats the oil once in a while. part of the problem yes is the transmission, mostly the timeing . if it lucks out and isnt the tranny. then you may have an oil leak or no oil, your car needs lubrication in the motor to perform the compression and power to go the speed you desire. easily fixed for me by changing the oil more often than the recommended 3,000 miles . after all the car is old. i use my car to race alot.so i hope this helps . its a great car from the saturn company , but always has problems. please contact me further if needed
I've never had a oil issue the only issue is it stalls when I punch the gas.. and every now and then I might pull up at a red light or stop sign and it stutters like it's gonna cut off but it never idles down the rpm stays the Same but it jumps and jerks then stops as if nothing ever happened...
May be your timeing, also try adjusting the idle which in some cars is on the air intake or cat converter . Which our car have not found the idle device yet. But you can just adjust idle a little higher or lower to fix the problem too that's what I've always done and never had problem yet for any vehicle I've driven . This car though for me was when I had an oil problem. Which try using seafoam it's an intake cleaner for multi purpose sold at Walmart as we'll. about 10$ open up the air intake under the hood remove air filter. Turn car on and pour tiny amounts into intake. It will suck it up. While doing that take a second or third hand and rev the throttle under hood. You may have some bad carbon built up in motor aka pistons and exhaust.this stuff cleans out that carbon. Meaning car idles better and overall runs better
Are u do for a tune up flush out all old oil fluids put new and spark plugs and filters and check rear differential under rear if gunky get a gunk yard one to much for new and to fix. Other than that I don't know this is from my experience.
