I had that in my '82. It turned out to be the EGR computer opening that
valve at the wrong time. I unplugged it and its run fine since. I havn't
found any fix for it yet. Joe Grubbs supposedly had a fix, but I could
never get details from him. Anyway, unplug yours, or the vacuum/electric
relay mounted on the right strut area just over the EGR valve, and take it
for a test drive.
