Is there something wrong with the car?

Is your complaint about the clutch slipping or the rpms fluxuating under a load?
Older 13's have a TSB out for idle issues..
I'm used to v8 where u let the cluch out slowly without any accel and then u use the gas to go.. This car however will tend to bog and stall using the same technique.. I still try for the grab at low rpms.. but u have to be already on the gas early, before complete engagement.. You really have to drive this car to get it smooth.. Gets more natural with time..
