I cleaned the air filter, carborator, and changed the spark plugs. When I press the gas, it goes slow, then slowly gains power, but it sounds like it ants to die or something. Second gear is the same, and third barely wants to go, and fourth Slows dows massivly to the point it wont move unless I downshift. When I stop, I am covered in a blanket of blue smoke, and the path behind me is covered in blue smoke. Also, when I rev the engine, it sounds like the engine is knocking or something. Not sure if its the engine, but I think it is. HOw do I fix this? Or does it need a new engine and transmission...basically an overhaul?

While at stop lights my idle is normal at about 800 RPMs, then it drops about 100 and the car shakes for a couple seconds. Back to normal. then it drops again. This happens about every 5 or so seconds. It seems worse in hotter weather. What causes this. I probably have to go to a mechanic but I was hoping it was a simple problem I could fix.

Here is what I am considering...
(*slightly used* 05 or 06)
Chevy Impala
Toyota Camry
Nissan Altima
Mazda 6
*currently leaning a little more toward the Altima*
Also, has anyone bought a car off of Ebay? If so, how was the experience? That thought kinda scares me.

threatening a head-on collision? I get angry when that happens. Why does my life have to be threatened while I am driving to work? Those aggressive drivers should be arrested.

right size to fit a standard guage train. Which is what it is now used for as part of London Underground's East London Line. This fact seems to convenient to not have been planned. But I can find no evidence that it was planned to accept trains when it was being designed. does anyone here have information regarding this particular aspect of the Thames tunnel
