Strange Shuddering

[Tom Donohue]

Completely different idea...my 200tqa had similar symptoms at first, then 
developed full-blown bog-down on acceleration...kept running, but only if 
the throttle was feathered.  Turned out to be a failed MAF sensor.  If the 
other cures don't help, maybe this could be investigated.  Regards, Tom
