[tech question] car bucking



i assume you already checked the rubber boot between the intake and fuel
distributor for tears?? i also figured out what the problem with my audi
was. it was doing a something very very similiar. it turned out to be the
mixture control soleniod? i think thats what it os called. its the grey
piece on the side of the fuel distributor, has a two wire plug going to
it.......
