Yesterday my truck starting bucking as I was driving, like it was missing really bad, almost as if I was turning ignition off/on, really noticable in a 5spd.
Seems to idle fine, and will accel fine up to 4K if it doesn't start missing, once it starts I have to let of gas or it feels like my drivetrain is going to fall out. Prior, between gears it did seem to hesitate/stumble slightly when RPM fell and gas applied. Also, occasionally on a hot start, after sitting 10-15 mintutes it would idle rough, almost as if flooded..... Mileage seems to be good, still getting usual 275-300 miles a tank, did run out of gas a couple weeks ago with about 330/tank about a block from station.
First thought was plugs or fuel filter. Changed plugs and no improvement. Then I thought maybe ignition pack, or somehting along those lines..
Any thoughts?
