So i took my car to a reputable tuner in my area and he says he can't tune my car perfectly because it burns too much oil. I'm fine with lower hp numbers but the driveability of the car sucks. It bucks and hesitates at low rpms and the idle surges a little without the a/c on but when i turn on the a/c the idle with kick up and come back down every 10 or so seconds. I'm starting to think he just doesn't want to spend the time to tune it properly. My set up is basic, a trickflow stage 1 cam with LT's in an otherwise stock longblock cobra. The car ran perfect before I put the cam in besides burning a little oil. I will eventually get the motor rebuilt but is there any reason the car cant drive without the bucking and idle issues in the meantime. By the way I have taken the car back to him once to fix the problem, but he only made it slightly better.
