hey every1! been workin hard and just havent found time to drop in. i really need some help fast, cause i gotta go out of town sunday and i need 2 fix my before i go. ok hear is the problem: about a week or so ago i was coming home from work at 3 in the morn and was doin 70 down a 4 lane with cruise control on and on level road. well anyway i creeped up on this truck real slow, while doing 70, him maybe doin 68. just as i come to his front bumper with my rear bumper, my pathy just jerked all of a sudden. at first i thought that the truck i just passed might have come accross the white line a little and slightly bumped me. now remeber im still doin 70mph on the highway in houston, tx! i just went on. so after im goin down the hwy with no1 in sight, still doin 70, it does it again! now im really freakin! well it didnt do it again till i went to work the next day in about 93 - 95 degree weather. this time it did it like 3 or 4 times in about 1 or 2 seconds!! well then on my way back home that morn it did the 3 or 4 reps that it did on the way to work, but this time i noticed my tach jumpin up and down, im like thank god, a clue! nowit takes me about 45 min to get to work and/or home and it will do this, well at first it was like once home and once to work, now it does it 3 to 4 times in either direction. also when this is not happening the pathy runs great! i even floored it after its done it a couple of times up to about 90 mph and no problems. another thing i noticed is that the cruise control does not shut off. you would think that when the rpms drop to 0 it would, but did not! tonite i notice it did it while i was cruise controling at 50 mph, but this time it did it much slower, the reps this time was still 3 or 4 but it took approx 5 or 6 secs to go through its reps! im thinking three things, 1. fuel pump, but 99.9% of the time they go out like all of a sudden with maybe only a hint as to it failing: 2. crank pos sensor, but again same as above: 3. fuel filter, but would be almost constant and bad drop in fuel milage and power, of which i have neither: also was thinking 2nite that maybe the throtle pos sensor, but rpms would not build up. so please help! hope i gave a good enough description of problem

When did you last check your spare tire's pressure?
