Re: having problems with 94 Geo Tracker.....
well we tested the tps as well and it came back bad, it has a bad spot in it and its very intermitten. I got a new tps from a junkyard and havent had time to put it in yet, but it seems like this is a seperate problem. If you hold the throttle in a certain position it fluctuates 500 rpm's up and down, and when driving as soon as you let off the throttle it slows down instantly, and then when you give it gas again it jerks, because the tps. Its very wierd because the problem this tps is having seems like it couild have been the problem the entire time, but his unplugging and plugging wires back in obviously fixed something and it wouldnt effect the tps, the CEL is still on and never went off, so I dont think he reset the computer. I will get the tps on as soon as I can and let you know the verditct, but so far so good when it comes to the bucking.

Is the TPS a wire wound potentiometer or is it a graphite POT like in electron equipment - radio volume control, etc.? I have a Geo Metro with some strange problem and I have not checked the TPS yet. But I was wondering how they work. If a graphite POT is in them, then Hell!, they'd wear out fairly quickly moving back and forth with each throttle movement - Gozillions of times a year! DoctorBill

I had a small exhaust leak I fixed it. I checked the timing it was retarded 20+ degrees. (Used an Inductive timing light.) Timing is now at +5 Replaced the distributor cap, spark plug wires, and spark plugs. Replaced the O2 sensor. I did all that at once cranked her over and she hasn't sputtered, stalled, or felt like it has hit a brick wall yet and I've been driving it for a couple of weeks. |

Re: having problems with 94 Geo Tracker.....
Try spending less than $10, change your pcv valve, add a litre of methyl hydrate to your gas tank on your next fill up and keep your tank above 3/4 full for the next 10 fill ups. Good luck.

Re: having problems with 94 Geo Tracker.....
Mine just started having the bucking problem about 4 weeks ago. Took it to the garage and they did tune up (plugs wires and all), did nothing. My mechanic (small town guy) had to farm it out to another garage and it turned out to be the computer. They put a new (used) computer in and now it's running wonderful.

Re: having problems with 94 Geo Tracker.....
Check the points on the distributor cap and the rotor. It sounds like it is misfiring. Also if you have the chance check the teeth on the distributor.

Re: having problems with 94 Geo Tracker.....
I've seen in here, or somewhere, that the crank/timing belt sprocket can slip, or be broken from it's mount if not put on correctly (or just age). Then timing problems can result, and you can be out of time even when you set it according to the +5 mark.
It's in Viper's list above, he reset timing as part of the cure. Maybe you could pull the timing cover and belt, so you can remove that pulley and check. The cure was to drill and put pins into the crank and pulley. There were two people there, who had that problem and solution. They both did the drill/pin technique, maybe because the crank was also damaged, or because the pulley was costly. One other thing, maybe your Cat.
