My 95 AWD with 222000 miles has been acting very strange lately. The speedometer starts jumping and it loose power and wont shift correctly. It also stalls until i hit the trip reset a few times. What else should i check ?

Check the fuses. Mine did that, I thought it was broken beyond repair. I found a blown fuse and replaced it. All is well.

Well I'm glad i listen to this forum but i didn't know what to do about the speedometer errors. I replaced it with a used one with a few more miles and its better than new.

Glad you were able to find the issue.

BTW sense the odo is digital, wouldn't it read what the PCM told it to read?

Fuse # 8 (15A) or fuse # 17 (10A) on the fuse box near your left leg.

You need to pop out the black cover to see the fuses.
