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!? |

So its shifting smooth, but sputtering during acceleration? Or are you having trouble getting into gears at high RPM, or any grinding? Cause the title states won't shift smoothly, but your issue doesn't sound related after reading.
Also the pulling could be many of things, just have to get down there and see whats wrong. Check to see what needs to be replaced before you go for an alignment. |
