Alright 6gc, I tried using the search, and really couldn't find anything.
My celica is acting really weird. Whenever I drive it, the revs randomly rise and fall really speradically. Its really inconsistant, and when they go up and down, the whoel car jerks, almost like when someone is lerning to drive 5 speed. At first I thought it was my clutch slipping on the flywheel, but then my dad checked it out and thought it seemed for electrical. Then my buddy checked it ou and said it was my distributor and that I should change my cap and rotor. So I changed my cap and rotor, and its still got the problem. I really don't know what to do, its my daily driver, and its to the point where it barely drives becasue I don't want to damage anything else. I took a video on my phone, to give you a better idea of what its doing, I know its real bad quality, but hopefully it'll help.
