< =text/>_popupControl(); Hi all. Just recently i've noticed once in a great while in 1st gear when I engage my clutch from a complete stop it sometimes causes the truck to jerk a few times before it smoothly accelerates normally. When it does that if I let off the gas it'll stop jerking and take off normally again. Other than that my truck runs perfect. The clutch is strong it does'nt slip and can even chirp the tires in a couple gears. Anyone know what's happening here? Is this a problem? Do I need to just adjust the clutch or something? All advice welcome.

I have the same problem, but only happens when the temp
outside is 50 degrees Fahrenheit or below. No check engine
light, and I use Fram Oil Filters to answer the question
posed to surfahjammer.

My concern is with the AIR FILTER not the oil filter.

I must have had one to many beers when I read the original post. Copy AIR FILTER. Its an aftermarket Specter and is oil impregnated.
