car stops

Post by chinkyeyes28 »

I have a 1987 automatic volvo gle turbo intercooler 2.3 and when i step on the brakes the car stops when i start the car i have to hurry up and put it in drive and take off for it to drive. The car also doesn't accelerate the way it used to, and when I start the car it is very bouncy.
