[QUOTE="forango, post: 1416195, member: 21883"] I have a '95 5.0 and am having a continual issue of it "sputtering" and bucking...it is similair to a fouled plug or bad plug wire condition, but I am concerned it goes farther than that... it does it the same time..about 1 mile down the road from the first start-up of the day(sometimes shorter distance) and it only does it while in gear..if i put the car in neutral it will be fine, put back in gear and it will do it again...usually "goosing" the throttle while in gear snaps it out of this and then it drives fine. my main cause for concern is that it did this last week and when i went to push the gas to smooth it out the car flat died and wouldn't restart....a piece of the distributor broke in side that sends the signal to coil to fire....I am not wanting to break that again....maybe unrelated but I doubt it. Could this possibly be a computer issue? or should it be as simple and plugs and wires, etc? [/QUOTE]
