just a quick hint....

if you changed your injectors , clips , mass air sensor , etc. and you car still kind of buckles or misses while your driving , try changing the distributor ... i thought the air flow sensor was messed up on mine ...we changed the distributor to fix another problem and it ended up fixing this one

no guarantees but try it out...it might work

What you really are talking about if you are having problems with sputtering or bucking while building boost, is usually a bad Vacuum Advance module. This is the little "flying saucer" looking thing mounted on top of the distributor. That is the only part that you usually need to replace.

If it has never been replaced, then just do it.

When it goes, the timing doesn't retard on boost, and the "bucking and sputtering" is actually detonation. Keep it up and you will blow a head gasket,or worse.
