We custom ordered it from the factory. It would lose power on the freeway and begin to buck like a bucking bronco. The only way to regain power was to turn on the heater full blast which somehow helped the situation.
It is amazing I never got rear ended or killed.

LOL! i had a 1981 Olds Omega, same car. 2.5L Iron Duke motor (unless you had the 2.8L 60º V-6). I never had the problem you did. It would barely get out of its own way, and it blew the front seal on the tranny, otherwise slow, ugly, and relatively reliable appliance.
