Doris,
If your local garage can't offer a better explaination than that, it may be time to find a better local garage. Are you getting a check engine light while the engine is acting up? Check engine light or not, any reputable mechanic should be able to hook the car up to a scan tool, drive the car, and get some idea of what's going on.
