yes, all plugs and wires have been changed. It does at almost soon after i come to a complete stop. Engine revs and thenm it jumps forward. And when i but it in park or neutral it revs up and down then cuts off.

Car surging forward

Ok.....my 2000 lanos has been surging forward when stoppped. The problems seems to get worse. It actually starts to rough idle then surge forward. I already replaced tha cam sensor. My guess its either the TPS or the Map sensor. Any ideas?
