1. Bad Gas. Use only Supreme Gas. NEVER buy the cheap stuff
2. Rangers are famous for a design defect that will require you replace the coil pack and computer simoultaneously. (Same day)
Usually those knocking noises are small little combustion explosions. DON'T let your truck make those noises. If your truck does this anywhere from 30MPH or higher or for extended periods of time, get to your mechanic! You can do serious damage to your pistons.
Driving at 50mph or above what causes a loud knocking clicking sound during acceleration?
where is a transmission sensor that may cause an 02 ford ranger 4.0 liter to feel as though it may be skipping during acceleration?
One of the possible causes of a Pontiac Bonneville to jerk during acceleration is that the car needs a tune up. The engine misfiring can lead it to jerk as you accelerate.
During acceleration? I'm not sure. But when both idling and acceleration the engine's combustion can cause a lot of vibration in the steering wheel if you are in an older vehicle.
tie rods
ok where is the knocking coming from, brakes, engine ? only happens during acceleration ? if it is truly an engine knock, check oil immediately, but maybe to late, again need more info.
Fuel Pump
Bucking during acceleration can be caused by a low fuel level. When the car is running on fumes, it is not getting a constant supply of gas which will cause it to stop and go.
The knocking noise from the rear of a Mercedes 190E during acceleration can be caused by several factors, including worn or damaged suspension components, such as shock absorbers or bushings, which may fail to absorb impact properly. Additionally, issues with the rear differential or driveshaft, such as worn U-joints or loose mounts, can also contribute to knocking sounds. It's important to inspect these components for wear and damage to diagnose and resolve the issue effectively.
try changing plugs and wires
There are numerous issues that can cause a lack of power during acceleration. Common causes include a clogged fuel filter, a clogged air filter, and dirty fuel injectors.
A bad o2 sensor can cause this problem in a car. A bad fuel pump, fuel filter or fuel line will also cause hesitation during acceleration.
