Inconsistent hesitation and lunging (UPDATE: problem fixed?)

[bretski]

Is there a write up anywhere on how to use that voltmeter and what the results mean?

The AFC manual has all the diagnostics and resistance specs. PM me if you or anyone else needs a copy...

Here are a couple of links which expand some on the Bentley manual. The Probst "Blue FI Book" (also from Bentley) also has some good information if you have $30 burning a hole in your pocket.

Normally I wouldn't wake up a discussion that's been quiet for 7 years, but I'll make an exception in this case. I believe my original problem from 2008 (hesitation, bucking, stalling) has finally been resolved by replacing the Temp Sensor II. The sensor has always tested OK, however after replacing it I was able to drive 100 mile test without a hint of trouble. Here's an update I recently posted about the fix in another section after Colin's visit with my bus this week...

You get the Follow-Through Award. Still running good/well?

Yes, the bus is running smooth. I plan to take another drive on Sunday. Thanks!

I hate reading old troubleshooting threads that don't have a conclusion, I had to follow up on this one.

I peeked at your bus in another post and it looks like a pretty nice ride. I hope it is still running well!!

Thanks Randy, I appreciate it. The bus is still running better than ever. I drove another 150 miles last Sunday to attend a VW car show. The only problem I have right now is an oil leak but I'll worry about that later.

It is as original as the BobD, a sibling with barely more miles on its odometer.
