Still bucking....

My 94 SL1 is getting old and pissy....

When putting around town at 30 mph around 2000 rpm the motor bucks and bounces. It's started doing it at highway speeds now as well.

It goes fine if I have my boot to the floor.

  1. Fuel pump iffy?
  2. ????

HELP!

Sounds like a spark issue but if you havent replaced your fuel filter in the last 20k-25k miles your due for one. How many miles do you have on it now and when was the last time plug and/or wires were changed?

Check codes.

On my car, it was the knock sensor. Reading the codes indicated bad connection to the knock sensor or faulty unit.

Replaced and fine since. May be a dealer only part - 1st place i went to gave me something that would not work/fit.

Spark plugs and leads about 2 months ago, gave the thottle body a good dousing with cleaner. Have had no Service Engine light come on ever (knock on wood). Fuel filter is about 1 yr old now, but it does it even when a new filter goes in (just not as bad)
