[tech] need help! Car bucking on the hwy

[longcoeur at yahoo.com (Patrick Bureau)]

yes I did.. no go.
 
After messing with it it all settled in this morning, but I know she will do it to me again....(bucking at 70 in a curve with an 18 wheeler behind you, kinda gives you flashbacks of "death on the highway".
 
So  I am driving the cabrio today, after talking to a few of you guys and the helpfull emails, I will change the fuel filter and the fuel pump relay, and see what next.
 
I had a loose lambda on the distributor, I patched it up with JB Weld. (would hate to change it...) So the rocco has officially failed me ... 314 days after the rebuild...
no bad a record I guess...lol I was wondering when she was going to act up...
 
oh btw the peiburg transfer pumps are lifetime warranty at autozone, pretty glad on that fact, cause its now 87.00$ for one (bought my last one 2 years ago 38.00$).. damn!
