its bucking

[evoDRichie]

ok so tonight my car was bucking at higher rpms, so found that my crank sensor wasn't tightened down all the way so i tighten it down and now it bucks bad all thru the gears above 1k. its a obd1 swap anyone else had this problem, is it just a bad sensor? up until this it has been no problems for 5 months... any help would be appreciated

By bucking I'm only going off what happened to me, if touchy and stumbling in and out of throttle. For me it was a bad mass air flow meter with some small vacume leaks.

like i hit the throttle and it literally bucks hard with no power just until its floored then it pulls hard

X2 on MAF that would be my guess

[evoDRichie]

hmm the maf is a new one but its non OEM so idk, ill check on that then also...

deff the MAF i unplug it and it runs fine... better actually than it did before... now my new question is it ok to drive with no maf?

[evoDRichie]

for now that is im not gonna mess something else up with it unplugged am i ?

[evoDRichie]

and now im looking for a 540 maf anyone got one?

I wouldn't drive w/o it more than 100mi.
Just get a new one asap

If you have a 403 ecu, make sure the 540 MAF will work. I don't think you can do it.

Once it warms up does your problem go away? Try unplugging your throttle pos. and cleaning your icv and see what happens.
