When i drive the car and left off the gas a little and then give it a little gas the car bucks, between shifts after the clutch pedal is released the car bucks a little unless i press in the clutch. Now i have a Bran new Tremec 3550 with a new cluch, pressure plate, drive shaft etc... installed about a month ago. But the car did it before the new stuff went in. I went through the entire rear wiring harness and found no splices or shorts, and also the dash is ripped out and i still havent found anything. When it bucks though i hear this clicking sound sounds almost like a relay but its hard to drive and feel if there clicking. also i have a bran new fuel pump and filter. to me it feels like i'm dropping a cylinder because after it bucks the car wont rev any higher than 3K. Car runs fine and starts and also drives fine but it just bucks every once in a while. Just wondering if anyone has an idea or opinion on this.

Does it do this at just low rpm's, like under 2,000 and the lower you go the worse it gets?
