Is this normal? Low RPM "chugging"
Well I have an M6, when I'm cruising below 2k RPM or so and press the gas like 3/4 or more/floor it, it like chugs and misses until it gets above 2k or so... and I don't know if this is normal because the RPM's are so low, or if I have a slight miss or something going on here.. ?
But if I ease the gas it drives smoothly. I'll be cruising at ~60-65 with the cruise on and go up a steep hill, so the cruise will accelerate to stay at speed and it will do the same thing at the low RPM's...
So M6 guys when you're <2K and floor it does it keep going smooth or do what I'm describing?

It has done it since I bought the car. I've put new plugs and wires on it... Opti..? I mean once it hits above 2k it is fine. I raced a M6 GTO and was dead even, It drives good in the upper rpm's...

When I bought the car with 78k miles, it still had the original plugs & wires, an obvious misfire, and code P0300. One of the plugs was green on top and the wire was rusty. I put new plugs & wires on it, including the coil wire. That took care of the misfire and the code. But it still has always done what I'm describing...
