Hi thanks for your answer on this i will try the fuel filter first hopefully that works :) and no the engine light do's not come on when this happens.my car is old but it has only done 72,000 km
Not sure when they were last clean but I am going to check all these areas
When was the last time the plug wires were replaced. Sometimes when the are going bad it would cause it to feel like it is about to trip all over itself

All of these answers are valid for the loss of power but, bouncing around? Do you mean the engine is surging?
