Question my escalade is stumbiling

hey guys need some help with my esky.
well i noticed that it developed a light stuble under load it dont do it all the time and it seemes to do it more when warm.
its a 04 ext 6.0 with 50k miles on the clock.
it says to run 91 octaine in it so most of the time ill run mid grade in it and i dont realy notice a differance when i run premium.
this started after a ran a bottle of injector cleaner in it and i havent put more gas since and this was 2 days ago
could it be the gas or maybe its time for a tune up?????.
can it be knock?
thanks guys

well i just came back from orlando [i live in alabama] and it dident realy do it any more.
could it just of been bad gas?
or maybe the injector cleaner droped the octain of the gas and it was makeing it ping and miss?
i ran 93 octain in it on the trip and got about 2-3 more mpg on the highwayand the truck ran a lot better and smother.

stumblin on twunteeeeeeeeez

check your O2 sensors, make sure they didn't get clogged from any exhaust that came out after cleaning your injectors. mine got clogged and i had to get new O2s. got rid of the rough ride and improved gas mileage.

93 octane is good
