I am having a real problem trying to determine if I have the hesitation problem with my car. I do a lot of driving on streets
with 25-30 M.P.H speed limit, so when I shift to 3rd. or 4th. and try to keep a constant speed my car does not seem to drive smooth, but the "bucking"that some people describe is not very noticible; if you are not paying attention it could be attributed to rough pavement,but it is not definitaly a smood ride. Any opinions will be appreciated

I'm a little confused about this issue but I think that the hesitation problem is when trying to accelerate - there's a lag that you will experience.

"Bucking" might not be this same problem.

bucking aka lugging
I have to agree with the previous posting. Your bucking sounds more like you are lugging the engine and not the lag at WOT that people have complained about.
