hallo
check if you have a spark when engine dies. if not, check the rpm sensor or ignition coil. both have the simptoms like you describe.

How is the EGR Valve?
What is causing the issue, is the higher vacuum
signal when you get on the gas.
Use that and theory to figure it out.

Toyota 4cyl. truck bogs down backfires after warms up

Hi Bennie, When did you last replace the fuel filter? I believe a service may be the answer to your problem. If you have carried out a service recently, try replacing the fuel filter for a better quality product. Regards John

Engine misses and bucks till it warmes up then runs fine

EGR valve or system is bad. that is Exhaust Gas Recycling valve. It's a pollution device that recycles exhaust gas back through the engine once it warms up. It's not suppose to work while engine is cold so there is a thermostat system for it that closes off the EGR valve while engine is cool. Once it warms up then it opens the valve. If you're recycling exhaust gas while engine is cool it will run rough. This can be hard for the average guy to troubleshoot as you need check the vacumn switches and thermostat valve.

Bucking while idling

You want to check your charging system. Take a reading at the battery and see what you get. it should be 13.5-14 volts. Check the volts at the cables. with the battery hook up take a reading at the cables. if there is a big difference between the cables and the battery then you need to clean and tighten your cables. If the volts are less then I said before then you need to have your alternator checked.

1988 GMC w/ fuel injectio

My 1988 GMC jimmy with V-8 and automatic transmission w/ over drive would buck and **** at low speeds. The problem was identified by a FixYa guy as a transmission problem and suggested I try adding a Lucas product transmission additive at about $4. I did that and I am amazed that the old truck runs smooth, even idles better and does not stall when I go to reverse.
