1993 chevy s10, 2.8L v6, 5speed, 141k miles
*New Spark plugs, plug wires, distributer cap, rotor, coil, alternator, ignition control module.*
Edit: Also, after rolling down the windows, I can hear a loud popping noise. It sounds like its coming from the engine bay, not as loud as a backfire out the tail pipe i believe.
Edit: Maybe surging is not the best way to explain it come to think of it, it's more like a violent jerk.
Hey guys, back with another problem. So my truck has been recently "surging." That's the best way I can describe it. Basically the idle is okay, but every now and then when I give it gas while I'm driving, most usually when I go up a hill or press the gas pedel down farther than like half way, the truck kinda instantly slows down for a second or two then goes back to normal, and I can smell something odd for a couple seconds after it happens. I cant place the smell, maybe electrical? Sometimes it will do it 3 or 4 times in a row then back to normal like it never happened. Like I stated, it happens quite a bit, enough to cause a concern. It's quite scary when it happens. I'm trying to explain it the best I can think of. I feel like it's a fuel issue, maybe my fuel pump. Its been doing it for like a month now. I replaced the fuel pressure regulator with a new one like 5 months ago. THANKS!
