  • rocking bad at constant rpm speeds

    So what could it be??? i thought it might be vac. leak but i havent found anything...what else could it be. at 1-3 gears, it rocks bad when u try to keep it at a lower rpm say 1800-2500, maybe more. any ideas on what to look for? and i havnet checked codes because of the 95 obd computer ****, so any ideas?

    The OBD1 computer is the easiest to check. Grab a paperclip and a code list, then get to work. ;)

      I'm having the exact same problem on my 95 3.4L. I havent found any kind of a vac leak either. Mine has been doing it for a while now and nobody seems to know what it is. It doesnt ever set a code either so it doesnt do me any good to try to pull a code. Let me know if you find the problem.

        mine is throwing a code, but thats not it. the OBD1 isnt what i have, its liek the 1.5 crap or something the way i was told. 95 was the year they changed. am i right 95 3.4 owners?

          Yeah, it has the OBD I computer but a 16 pin connector which comes from the OBD II where as OBD I is only a 12 pin.

              The OBD 1.5 (95-96) is simply a OBD1 ECU, with an OBD2 connector. You can fashion a adapter harness to pull the codes on 95 and a majority of 96 models, or simply ghetto rig something with jumper wires.

                That still wont really help me find the problem since I'm not throwing a code, but if you find something KenDawg, post it so I can possibly figure out if thats the same problem as mine is having.
