So lately Ive been getting some bucking between 2-3k RPM. Its very intermittent. I have trouble getting it to repet itself on every accel, but I usually notice it between 2-3K and usually above 1/3 to 1/2 throttle (been most noticeable in second gear around town. I dont notice it in first). Its been getting a bit more frequent and worse over the last week or two. The more throttle it has, the worse it is.
My plug wires are fairly new (in the big picture), but are Magnecors and I know people have had problems with premature failure lately. My fuel filter and plugs have also been replaced recently enough that I wouldnt look there first (though I suppose some bad gas could have ruined the fuel filter already). Ive also searched the old site, and found that it could be any number of issues: fuel filter, fuel pump, dirty fuel pump sock, dirty MAF sensor, wires, coil, etc.
I did clean my air filter recently, so Im hoping that the problem is that some oil may have found its way to the MAF. I didnt think it was over oiled, however. Im going to check that first anyway (very cheap and easy). Im not sure if this could cause bucking in such a small window, I would think it would affect more of the RPM range.
Basically Im wondering what could be the most likely causes. Im going to start with the cheap and easy stuff unless someone has another idea or gives me easy ways to check things like the wires.
