[http://community.cartalk.com/post/discussion?#](http://community.cartalk.com/post/discussion?#) 2.3 Liter 4 cyl. accelerates fine in all gears, but once you reach a steady speed in any gear, it jerks and bumps. Does not run smooth unless you are accelerating? Any ideas? ---

Engage your CC on a smooth and level stretch of road and see if the problem persists. If it does…have your fuel pressure tested. That would be a good place to start. ---
