I"ve got a 2006 VZ wagon on factory gas, and when it gets to 2500 to 3000 rpm the check drive train light comes on and it feels like its dropped a cylinder. If I pull over and turn car off, wait a minute and restart it's ok. plugs have been changed, coils checked, no idea?

Is it a gas vapour or a injected setup. Could be a injector of the mixer.

VZ Lumina wagon
hi

Hey mate I have a vz Lumina wagon on dual fuel not from factory but I had the same issues about a year ago , but mine was more as I took off from the lights and floored it especially around a corner(not burnout) the whole car just shutdown so had to roll to the side of road and wait a sec then start car and off i went, it ended up beinging I needed new gas injectors as mechanic says they have a life expectansy of 5-7 years after he fitted new ones car runs like a dream, hope this helps!!
