Those are my symptoms, but also BLACK plugs --> too much fuel is injected.
They are ALL black, so an injector problem is ruled out.
Checked the AFM, all is well.
Checked the fuel pressure, all is well.
Tried replacing the temp sensor, didn't do any good.
Unplugged the O2 sensor, bucking still happens.

In light of the recent discussion, does my problem point to an ECU and or a
Hall sender problem?  What else could be bad? I'm in the dark, here.
