OK it's an 89 ranger 2.9 5 speed 4x4 pretty much stock besides a 4.0 clutch/starter/flywheel a custom snorkel electric fans and ghetto exhaust with no O2 sensor.
The problem is that between idle and 2k rpm it sputters has no power and jerks violently. but once u get past 2k rpm it feels 100% normal and runs fine. It doesn't do it all the time tho only when it feels like it. Yesterday and this morning it drove fine and after lunch it started acting up again. I have replaced every sensor (some multiple times to ensure it wasn't bad from the factory) I have spray stating fluid on Every vacuum hose and replaced almost all of themost last yeah when the motor was out. I am completely lost here I don't know what else it could be please help.
