Default Confused.

There's a problem I cant put my finger on. Sometimes in 1st or second, I'll try to accelerate, usually gently, and the car will "kick" 2 or 3 times. Its not making abnormal noises, only that its like the power cuts off and on, but almost instantly. Its so fast I cant seem to identify it. No warning lights, the trans seems OK, the engine doesnt seem to be giving problems, although it does idle pretty rough. Could this be an ignition issue? Im lost on this one guys.

have it scanned and see if theres something there to help. do a fuel pressure test on it. that is one thing that does not throw a code and could cause the motor to buck. your not lugging it are you?
