Jay, Look up "capacitor fix" in the archives. I have an 85, Digijet, that had the severe bucking and fixed it with a cap from RS that cost $1.50 in money and about an hour all told to do the whole job. I have not had 1 buck or hesitation (knock on wood Joe De style) since that wonderful fix. Good luck. Rich and Annemarie 85 GL "Buba" 98 Bug
