when im driving down the road more in 3rd 4th and od. when i put more of a load on the vehicl it seems to jerk and almost like its missfiring. what do you think would be the cause of it? timing, ignition, air intake. also its throwing a code havn't had it checked yet....i thought it might be in the clutch but my buddy said it was like it was missfiring....i had a wird loose on the spark plug coil fixed that it does it still.....considering the truck has 2 plugs per cylinder...possible a bad coil? it has 2 coils
