It's in the tune, I'm pretty sure. Fortunately, it doesn't occur every time or it would have risen to a much higher priority by now. Just a nagging little irritation is all. Nothing as bad as a beautiful girlfriend with a chipped front tooth might be!

I have a similar setup as Paul with the Haibeck 350/510 HP package. I have never experienced regular stalling or stumbling but once in a while I get a little stumble on take off, almost as if the engine were getting a little flooded. It only happened when I have been say, coming out of a parking lot in which I have the old timer's habit of blipping the throttle (as if one needed to clear the plugs on a 68 Hemi Roadrunner). I think it was confusing the computer. It always cleared up immediately, maybe in 100 feet of driving. Marc suggested that behavior like that is often related to O2 sensors that are not 100%. He reminded me that he had not changed them when he did the work so they are 20 years old, although with only 30k miles on them. I have obtained some new ones but haven't yet installed them, and actually have not experienced the problem during much of the past year. Probably will put them in this spring just in case.--Bob
