[Spridgets] (Fwd) Automatic rough...

[Brad Fornal]

I had that on my GTO, back when it was my daily driver. Drove me nuts. It
would be cruising along just fine, but out of nowhere, it would sputter and
stumble. Just for about 4 seconds, but enough to be annoying.
Now I know what it was....
Except, my GTO is a standard, not an automatic.
