jerky cruise control?

my cruise control is not smooth at all. i can set it at 60,70,80, ect and the ride isnt smooth. its not VERY jerky, but enough that I can feel it. i can feel the car accel slightly, and then it lets off, then accels slightly, lets off, repeat. kinda makes motion sick . i live in the cornfields of burban chicago, so its all flat land. happens at all speeds cruise is set to. the RPM barely moves when this happens and the speed remains the same. any thoughts?

OMG, mine is the same annoying way. I noticed one time that I removed my TB that the CC cable was a little loose, so when i put everything back together I tightened it, BUT it did not work :-(. Its still doing that accelerate, coast, accelerate, coast.

Also for some reason, If I set it for 70MPH, it wont actually stay at 70, it'll drop to say 65MPH before the CC kicks in, and even in its acceleration it wont go to 70. It'll stop accelerating at 68 and coast. It's horible.

I dont use it that much so I haven't really tried to track down what it might be.Maybe some can shed some light on this?
