on mine it was juddering between 3 and 4000 revs in the end  changed the fuel relay which solved the prob on mine take it for a run for a bout 5-10 mins and feel the fuel and ecu relay if thy are cold they are f?cked then replace them if they are warm then they will be fine. fuel relay is on top row 2ndor 3rd in from left and ecu is on the bottom far right.
