Hi There, I'm not sure where to send this, but I had a problem once before and it was answered through e-amil, so here I go with another. I have an 87 Wolfsburg with 69,000 miles on it. It seems that when ever it gets cold (30 degrees or less) or if it's cold and I drive it for about 1 1/2 hrs that it starts to "buck". I mead Buck really bad. It seems to do it at that instant just as you take your foot off the pedal to coast abit, and when you just put your foot back on to accelerate. It seems as if something is stopping the gas flow, and it almosts stalls. However, if I push in the clutch, it's fine. Has anybody heard of this?? I stop asap and through in some fuel injector cleaner/dry gas and it seems to help it for a bit (it's usually not as bad). Please, if anybody has any idea on what to try, please let me know. Also, can you please send your responses directly to me. I don't think I'm on the list yet. Thank you Marty Molitoris MMolitoris@aol.com
