Another bucking 16v

788 Views 5 Replies 5 Participants Last post by  vuu16v
I've read the other posts here about 16v's with idle problems and bucking/surging. Unfortunately, I am now facing the same problem, although slightly different.
If I keep the rpm's under 3k, then the idle is fine, but once it goes over 3k, it will start surging and bucking. I've already checked the intake boots for cracks. I'll be cleaning all the contacts tonite and reading some more from my bentley.
If anyone has any ideas, or has seen a similar problem, I'ld love to hear about it!
Thanks,
Terrell

Sure sounds like its not getting enough fuel (fuel pump).
