1998 4x4 xlt
89k
5spd
rebuilt title/front end damage
Issue is:
The truck will after a while of driving and sometimes right from the start, begin bucking when I try to take of from a stop and continue as I shift up through the gears, resulting in a very rough ride, missing and I have to really give it gas to get it to stop bucking.
At first i thought this was EGR, but after changing out the DPFE sensor, clearing my cel, and cleaning the MAF, and checking for vaccum leaks I still cant figure it out.
What makes me think it may be tranny related is when it starts buckin and I know when it starts because the truck seems to slow down, but when i shift into 3rd, it grinds for a sec..this only does it when the truck starts riding rough and bucking.
When the truck is cold and runs great, shifts into 3rd without a grind.
Any ideas?
