Try adjusting your TPS, it can cause bucking/jolting at partial throttle.

there is a tps write up in the pinned section of the 2nd gen forum... you will need 2 LEDs from radio shack and wire connectors. Also, a tb mod can make the car jolt, along w/a bad transmission.

HAHA found it , i ran the codes and found it was the narrow band tps, there was water in it, so i got out the air compressor and blew it out, reset the comp took it for a spin and the problems solved, no more codes. I love self diagnostic cars.
