2002 Chevy Blazer 70,000 miles

for the past couple of weeks my Blazer has been acting funny. When i get in it in the morning, start it up and put it into drive it has difficulty with a type of "lurching". When i start to accelerate it stutters a bit (sort of reving and then lurching forward). This only happens until I get above 30 miles an hour. I live in a very small military town and I was hoping someone could give an idea waht could be wrong before I talk it in to the shop.

when was your last tune up. also do you have a check engine light on. check your cap and rotor for carbon tracking and plug wires for arching
