85 900S 5 speed 190K First noticed a hesitation (bucking) during a drive yesterday. The bucking would increase going up inclines and get much worse accelerating from a stop More like bucking then than a hesitation had to clutch to stop the bucking and coast a bit and very slowly accelerate. OK starting, at idle and at 55mph on a flat road or a slight decline. Changed the fuel filter, plugs cap & rotor a few months ago. Wires Ok. Fueled the car the day before and drove several miles. No problems noted. My first thoughts are the fuel pump is begining to fail, low fuel pressure or a failing ignition module causing a very weak spark. Any advice would be greatly appreciated in troubleshooting. Jim
