when i start my car, my idle is fine, my exhaust starts hiccuping when im at an idle and then it feels like the car is turning over and stalling. when i hit the car it goes away some until i hit 2nd gear. just wondering if it was the oil pan gasket for sure now? thanks, josh

seriously, how in the world would your oil pan gasket make the car "hiccup"?

it sounds like a spark/fuel issue to me. pull the codes. there may be one even if the light is not on.
 
i dont know, i was thinking the gasket is deteriorating and air was getting in causing the car to mess up. i have no idea whats wrong with it. thats why im asking for help =/
 
You may want to have the timing checked. If you hit it and it starts to run ok your distributer cap may be loose and a hit could somewhat put it back into position and then the vibration from driving could turn it slightly. Let me know when you figure out what it is.
