Strange stumble... For some reason while im driving down the road most of the time in OD under a light load i get a bit of a stumble. I changed the o2 sensors with 13111's, plugs (tr6's), wires (gmpp) and put a can of sea foam through the gas tank now for some reason it has created this stumble from time to time. Its like the motor completely misses a revolution or two and u can feel the reduce of speed or torque i should say from forward movement. It ran perfect before this all happened and i just decided to do a tune up which i do quite often on it to ensure to myself that everything is fresh. The battery was also totally dead and i charged it back up and this is when i noticed all these problems. Im totally lost in what this could be!

Sounds like a secondary miss. go back over the plug wires, make sure they're clicked on the coils and plugs good.
You might have cracked a plug too. Only way to tell that is to take them out and check em real good.

It's doesn't seem like a miss situation. It's like the car skips a revolution totally all the way around the cylinders. Its not like a spitter/spudder but more like it loses all fire or fuel for a split second. Very odd deal. I have went back over the wires again already and re-seated all of them. Got one click on the plug and two at the coil on each one.

I got it cured. I had messed with the VE prior of the battery going dead and that was the problem. Its good to go now. I put a new battery on it and now i dont have my low trac light coming on while im at a dead stop. Thanks for the help though!
