I have a 1999 ford contour that will hesitate occasionally when accelerating, being the worst between 50 and 60 MPH. The problem goes away temporarily when you let off the accelerator. It's a pretty noticeable shudder at 50-60 mph, but before that it's just a slight hesitation.

Any help is appreciated.

Has the check engine light ever come on? Have you checked fuel pump pressure? Any vacuum leaks?

Let me know.
