Strange "shudder"?

Strange "shudder"?
Seeing how I'm new to the whole Mustang thing, I figured I would try to get a few answers for my new ride. I just purchased a 2001 GT convertible with a 5 speed and I LOVE it! This has already got to be my favorite car; it just wants to be driven. I took her out for a little trip this weekend and it did pretty well. I did notice that I seem to have a problem while out on the interstate, the car wants to "shudder" like an auto with a torque converter problem. It only seems to happen at a certain throttle position; somewhere in the middle while under a decent load. I did notice that it will do it in other gears so I don't believe it is in the transmission. If anyone has any comments I'd lobe to hear them. Thanks in advance for any input!

I believe it has something to do with your fuel. I have the same problem ,and I am trying to fix it. It could be a bad fuel filter, your plugs, bad gas. Those are about all of the answers that I have recieved so far. I am just trying to narrow them down. Good luck with it.

dunno for sure but it definitely sounds like it could be fuel related. first thing I did when I bought my 99 a year ago was replace the fuel filter because he said it was still on the original. good luck and welcome to the boards!
