Default Engine stumble? Help.

Just after warmup, light turns green & car shudders pops and barely gets around corner. Tach is bouncing like ignition is shutting on & off. Clears out & goes OK. Done this a couple of times in the last couple of weeks. Stumped!

Are you looking for help on a C4, if so what year?

Default C4

He's got a '96 LT4. He was just logged in on my account. He just checked all the battery/ground connections. It's just very intermittant.
Any thoughts appreciated.

Thanks M.
Took out the battery & checked the connections. Just a little corrosion on the +. Brushed it off, put some anti-corrosion stuff on and put it back. Started and ran clean all the way home. Maybe that was it, maybe not. More driving & waiting for another "bump", We'll see.
