lurching/jerking during acceleration 200 1988

posted by  someone claiming to be 88 245 on  Thu Aug 18 17:11 CST 2005 [RELATED]

I've been experiencing a jerking/lurching of my 245 during accelerating. The car is a 5 speed, and it tends to do this just after engaging in a gear. The clutch will be out and i will begin to accelerate (most common when climbing hills) and the car will jerk 2 to 3 times, and then continue normally. I'm not sure if the problem is in the transmission or in the fuel system. It kind of feels like the car isnt getting fuel for a split second or something. For the record, at all other times the car rides/idles very smooth and never fails to start. Any info anyone has would be appreciated. thanks a lot.
