I HATE being the guy who has to start a topic for troublshooting something like this... but here we go.
I have a 1994 ST Manual that I've been trying to get back on its feet. Recently its started jerking and stuttering while accelerating. My alternator starting failing so I figured once I got it replaced it would hopefully fix the stuttering. Apparently not, now its worse. Anyone else ever have this problem? I'm 99% sure the alt works fine and that its installed correctly, car still starts and no issues w/ the battery. Also just had the clutch replaced 2 years ago so I really hope that isn't the problem. Any ideas!? |

Before taking it to a shop, I'd say start more simply. Jack each corner and wiggle the wheel. See if there's any play.
