I'm pretty sure it's in the FSM. If you don't have one, lemme know and I
can copy/scan my FSM for you (96 but it should be similar)

In my car... I would get a severe bucking off-throttle. Like to the point
that I would have to punch the clutch immediately. The bucking was like
worse than wheelhop! It would usually happen when I was decelerating
- like up to a light or down a hill. It'd happen in the 2500-3000
RPM range. The problem would also occur under partial throttle except it
wasn't bucking - more like hesitation and stumbling. I *THINK* (this is
like 4 years ago) the throttle response also got better once fixed. A
little but not huge. Another thing I think it helped was a little bit of
a high idle that wouldn't come down.
