Right before you shift from 2nd to 3rd and 3rd to 4th, the bus jerks at the end 
of the rpm spectrum. I don't have a tach in it but at around 25 mph (in 2nd) 
the bus jerks then I shift to 3rd it's ok until I get ready at 35 to 40 mph 
shift to 4th, same thing happens, bus jerks , pulsates....


The other day on the highway it started doing this at 55 mph in 4th.... Freaked 
me out. I've changed the coil, spark plug wires twice and still same symptoms. 
Running an SVDA with a compufire it in, could the compufire be going out? I 
think these things will just fail.
I'm sure everyone is out in their buses today enjoying beautiful weather, 

I'm trying to get ready for Spicewood. 

any suggestions please let me know. I did take the pict 34 off a few weeks ago 
and cleaned it up, blew out all the jets and all that..Plus took the fuel pump 
and cleaned the screen and installed a new fuel filter.
