My car suddenly behaved strangly this week. It stalled when the speed
was low. And every time when the auto transmission changed gear, the
rotation of engin dropped sharply, then went up.

Yesterday, the car was totally down. I had it towed to a nearby
garage. I got a call today and was told the ignitor or module(are they
same?) and distrabutor hose(?house?)need to change. It will cost over
$800. I bought my car from a friend who left US after put 20,000 miles
on the car. The car was in my garage for a year before he finally
decided to sell it to me. It has only 40,000 miles on it.

Any expert here can help me to figure what's caused the problem? Does
the cost and fix make sense? Thanks a lot.

A poor owner who need to walk this whole weekend:-(
