On rare occasion i can get the gas pedal just right to where it will maintain speed on a downhill run but usually it will just slow down unless I accelerate past leanburn mode.
Hmmm, mines not herky jerky at all, but smooth; however, its still seeming to show not necessarily hesitation but slow to respond to gas pedal pressing. It will be going at 70mph and then slowly slows down (don't remember if it was uphill on flat ground or what, mostly flat ground I belive), then I have to give more and more pedal to get it to pickup speed or to maintain speed, then it like starts to accelerate and i gotta ease off the pedal to get it to slow down accelerating to then maintain back at 70mph.

Is this a problem or the nature of the lean burn machine?
