Surging going up hills!
My 2000 SSEI runs great with only one problem I can't figure out. While on cruise at 65 mph 1700 RPM or so and going up a hill the boost guage goes from -10 up to 0 then when it gets to 2+ it starts this bucking. Like ******* it. If I put my foot in it it runs fine.Can't always fly up a hill at a 100mph.Kinda reminds me of my old Tri-Power,either you stay out of it or nail it.

Kinda sounds like a transmission or torque converter issue. Next time disregard the boost gauges and look at the RPM gauge and see what it'* doing.

A flush can break things loose and cause more problems then they fix. Best to just drain and refill. If the fluid is really bad, do it again in a few months.
