Default ckp sensor replaced still bucking
I was having a problem with my car surging and bucking under full throttle only in first. I replaced the ckp sensor and it is still doing it but only in first when full throttle. I've searched everywhere with no answer my car starts and runs perfect but will not let me mash it in first any other gear is fine.. does anyone have an idea replaced all plugs and wires also

What led you to change the CKP sensor, in the first place?? Code[s]?
Have you logged it when this happens?

Ive seen stranger.

Just had this same problem with a 2000 s10, would fall on its face and buck like twice while cruising at 40ish in 3rd.

You need to log the tps voltage.

its not the CKP sensor

No crank position sensor = no running engine



bucking is a function of either Air, Fuel , or spark...
many times its an issue with too much or not enough air in the throttle follower table
sometimes related to a bad TPS Sensor because the Throttle follower table uses the tps signal
it can also be caused by a bad IAC motor as it can also create airflow issue, but you would typically have other issues as well, like idle control issues

looking at your log, it looks like you have a sudden drop out of signal on all sensors....
so you might have a bad or intermittent ground on the ECU

its not big enough to completely kill all signal...but everything in your datalog shows a drop...

I had a customer with a similar issue where the vehicle would just run like crap and then kick back to fine....
finally it just died on him and he couldnt get it to run again...
by a lucky changce I happened to accidentally touch the ECU to a bare spot on the chassis and it fired right up and ran perfect....
the ground in the harness at the ECU connector was broken
so we tied a ground onto the ECU case and hit it straight over to the battery, and he hasnt had any issues since
