have had my 93 X for over a year now and it has always done this. While accelerating the engine "surges", but only ever so slightly (+/- 25-50 rpm). I notice it during a slow to moderate speeding up and it continues to do it until I have reached whatever speed I am going to drive at and then it cruises just fine. I have never tried tromping it but I bet if I could feel past all the vibration it would exist then also. It has never been enough of an issue to be a problem but the more I drive and think about it the more it bugs me. Has anyone had a similar problem?
Gimme your input.
 






You might just need to clean it out with a product like Sea Foam. If that doesn't work then most likely you have an IAC, vacuum line, spark plug wire, and/or TPS problem, in that order.
 






dude, double post, not cool
 






I just wanted to be read by the folks that don't flip through all the forums...like me; and expand the knowledge base.

Thanks for the help, I need to do a tune anyways- plugs, wires (maybe), filters, etc. What did I leave out that shouldn't be over looked? I'll try the SeaFoam too, I have gotten mixed results from it for other things, but results none the less.
