My Nightmare-1996 Sierra 5.0 stumbling and stalling
This issue was ultimately resolved by cleaning and securing the inputs to the computer on the driver side front wheel well under the hood. They had loosened and were filthy causing all kinds of problems. Truck runs awesome again. It is also for sale.- Jason012
