I have a 1986 Towncar. Occasionally it will buck like the tranny was having trouble shifting, or fuel was cut out, or electrical was cut out. I have to let off the gas, then reapply gas. Sometimes it happens a couple times in a row. I had the tranny serviced, they said everything is fine. Had the engine serviced at my local shop, they replaced the plugs. They said they basically did a tuneup. It still does it, has 140,000 miles. Any suggestions? Thank You all.
