UPDATE on engine stumble
Hey guys,
Just a little update for you. For those who don't know, sometimes my 94 LT1 has a really rough idle, or stumble at startup. Several others on the forum have something similar too. My stumble was happening one or two times a week. Well, I started by replacing the ignition wires with the MSD ones. I also replaced the spark plugs, I was using the boush platinium +4's, and now I have new NGK TR6's. Well, a week went by with no stumble, but I have since had one. It didn't seem as bad though.
Next, I'm going to try replacing the oxygen sensors, since I have already bought them anyway. I'm going to try this a step at a time, and try and keep everyone updated. Maybe we can figure this thing out.

Re: UPDATE on engine stumble (Eric94)
Sounds like you have a good plan to get it worked out :yesnod: Have you thought about the OptiSpark? I heard someone on here mentioning about the same symptoms and that was the villain to their problem...I hope its not and since it has gotten less I don't think that would be the case of a bad OptiSpark... I have heard they only get worse :( Good Luck.. :seeya
