Surging

Well I have finally given up on my 81 924 na. I have replaced

Fuel Injectors
Cold Start Valve
Air Filter
Fuel Filter
Auxilary Air Valve
Rotor
Distributor Cap
Vacum Lines
Negitive Battery Cable
Spark Plugs

I have cleaned all the grounds on the car
I have Checked the throtle position switch's
I have played with the fuel mixture

I have run out of ideas and resources. The car lacks power in first gear. Then when you shift into second after a 3 or 4 seconds the car surges forward and picks up power. Probably at least 15 or 20 horse power. Its like you flipped a switch and the power comes on. There is an intermitened buzzing comming from the fuel distrubutor. I do not remember hearing it befor but it may be normal.

Alot of these things needed to be replaced and it has solved many problems, and some were just regular maintiance. I feel good about the progress I have made with the car, but I am unable to find and fix this problem. It is time to take it to the shop. I wont enjoy spending the money but my own inability to correct the problem really gets to me.

Some people are like Slinkies. Not really good for anything, but you
still can't help but smile when you see one tumble down the stairs.
