i am just curious....my 94 camaro(bone stock) has a slight studder when you barley step on the throttle. is this normal? or am i just being paranoid? Im thinking that it might be the map sensor? Or maybe the maf......but im not sure. Had the car for a month now.....done this from day one.....any ideas?

Welcome

Not normal. Start with a basic tune up that includes a stock or MSD Cap and rotor.

Check fuel pressure and grounds next. It would not hurt to have the injectors cleaned

EGR issues are know to cause a low speed stumble. To try and help diagnose you could disconnect and plug the vacuum line to it and go for a short drive.

I always just dropped the Y-pipe and then you could get 8 and 6 pretty easy but 2 and 4 were always bloody
