1981 Ford Bronco Ranger XLT 5.8L Jerk, bucking
Posted to Ford Driveability on 4/15/1998

Hello Techs,

I've got this Bronco that starts to buck or jerk when you just let up on the throttle very slightly. It only occurs during warm up, cruise at about 40-45 MPH and slightly letting up on the pedal. It runs great under load, hot or cold. No problems...
