Subject:      Help unusual? bucking
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII

hello, i have searched the archives so please dont flame me for that, but most of the situations in which bucking occures for the majority? of people is at highway speeds (please correct me if im wrong) i am at a fairly normal elevation, not in a mountain or anything, and it has just started occuring to a degree where i am in fear of being stranded somewhere. so heres my backround info. i just had my driveshaft joints replaced, new clutch, new exhaust (disconnecting o2 sensor does nothing to help) and had a minor tune up, i

think he adjusted my throttle, thats the only thing i can think of that maybe he could have done, as i didn't notice it before, but i also had such a rattle that i didnt worry about anything else. mine doesnt occur at highway speeds at all, in fact over 45 it runs smoother than i ever remember it. it usually

occurs downshifting in the range of 2000 to 2700 rpms and pushing the clutch in stops this. also starting has become much more difficult, sometimes it

takes 4 or 5 tries to start. please, any help that can be given would be much appreciated. thank you christopher fryer 87 syncro gl
