I agree. Why would you junk it? Why wouldn't you simply find the problem, fix it and continue driving the car? Since you aren't able to find the problem, take it to a repair shop. Spend a few dollars on some professional diagnostics and then a few more fixing the actual problem. At that point you should be good to go.
