Subject:bucking at 2K rpm

Hello guys.My '85 is running so astonishingly well, i have nothing to
complain about except that it tend to buck a little at or just above 2K rpm
if you hold it there for a considerable amount of time while the engine's
warm. It's ONLY at the 2000-2200 RPM range though. I thought it was the AFM,
but i put in a spare and the symptom is exactly the same. I don't know that
the spare's any good, but the fact that the symptoms are exactly the same
has me thinking that's not it. So what do you think? Temp 2? O2? Throttle
Position Switches?
Any thoughts? I have really no running issues aside from that bucking from
time to time at that specific RPM.
