Jerky going up hills
I was going up a couple hills at 60 mph and felt a quick jerking from what felt like the front wheels. The tach didn't move and I didn't hear anything in the drivetrain. I talked to a friend with the 3800 in a Regal and he said it could be a crank position sensor. Talked with somebody else that said fuel filter change, but that would cause the RPM to jump around so I don't think its that.
Anybody got any ideas? |
jerking
There is a slight chuggle that happens on my 96 when going up hills between 45 - 50 MPH.
If thats what you mean. Seems to happen when the fluid gets hot and thin. Its almost like an irregular acceleration when the car is in lockup. Search the 92-99 section and you will see posts on this. |
could also be ignition related, missfire. this happens when a load is put on the engine in od, like going up a hill.. new plugs and wires if you cant' find the bad wire or plug.

I'm with sonoma_zr2. In my '92 LeSabre, when I had those symptoms, new wires and plugs did the trick.

I'm still new to the BC but I did experience the same jerking between 40 and 50 MPH. I took it to the shop and my mechanic actually determined that it was the MAF sensor. He told me that he actually worked on several bonneville's that were jerking and it was the same exact thing. I previously changed my plugs and wires though so that may have had something to do with it.

Mine did that and it was a bad plug wire.
