Default Need some LT4 help

Hi, Im working on my Dads 96 Collectors Edition LT4. It started skipping a little and threw a Check Engine light. Checked it said it was miss firing. Well I changed the plugs and Wires (no fun at all) It went a way for a while. Skipping started back and light came back on. Well he called and told me it seems like it only does it when he turns the traction control off.??? His tranny does feel a little clumpy. Any ideas? Thanks

There should be no relationship to the ASR system. Get it to an Advanced Auto or someone simioiar for a free code scan. It does sound like an opti is likely, but that is way to expensive to just guess at.
